What makes it 74% Kids-Friendly: Kids enter free, stamp rally and spotting zoo enclosures keep them engaged, elevators avoid long climbs, but deck has only views and no play area, so interest may fade after 30-40 minutes.
Why 1-2 hours visit duration is ideal for with kids: Allows time for the observation deck, stamp rally and a quick snack without rushing kids.
360° Panoramic Observation Deck (5F):
Walk along the glass-walled deck 100 m above ground to see zoo enclosures and city landmarks.
Tip: Go just after opening to let kids run safely before crowds arrive.
Zoo & Botanical Gardens + Tower Combo Pass:
One ticket covers adult zoo admission and tower entry; kids enter the tower free.
Tip: Buy the combo at the zoo entrance to skip separate ticket lines.
Stamp Rally:
Collect special stamps on 1F and 5F for a free souvenir gift.
Tip: Pick up your rally sheet at the ticket gate before heading up.
Kamiike Dragon Fortune:
Read your dragon’s fortune with a fun shrine-like figure on 5F.
Tip: Let each child take a turn reading their fortune aloud for extra fun.
1F Free Rest Area:
Relax on benches with snacks or charge devices in the ground-floor lobby.
Tip: Grab drinks at Atelier Ciel Café next door and enjoy them here.

A superb view of Nagoya City. This is a location I think not a lot of non-japanese tourists go and I visit this place because of its potential view of Nagoya City. Very nice place except traveling to here will need a bit of a walk. There is a zoo nearby the tower but close fairly early before 6pm. Worth coming for that break taking view.

I stopped by here one night, almost near closing time. I walked from the train station and walked the back route, by the zoo (it was dark and the woods made it creepy). Finally reaching Higashiyama Sky Tower! Friendly staff! I also stopped by here because of the All Japan Towers stamp rally. Great views on a clear night and it wasn't busy. If you are in the area, definitely put this on your lis...

It indeed has one of the nicest night views in Japan, and part of it is because the tower stands on top of a hill at a nice periphery of the city, and also because the buildings in Nagoya City seem quite well organized and planned—they remind me a bit of Singapore. Most people sit on the 5th floor, so if it's too crowded, the 4th floor offers a similar view, but with less people (it it's not peak...

Higashiyama Sky Tower is a landmark in the east part of Nagoya City in Aichi Prefecture. From the observation platform of the tower, which stands at a corner in Higashiyama Park, visitors can admire one of the largest parks in Japan. A magnificent view of the Central Alps, Mt.

This is one of the famous tourist spot here in Nagoya. We get to Hajigaoka Station and from there, we just walk going to the tower. The entrance is just ¥300 for adult. There is also a 360 degrees view of the whole Nagoya. It was really nice thou and on the top floor of it is a classy restaurant wherein you can also have a nicer view of the place.
Spring brings cherry blossoms in Higashiyama Park seen from the deck. Summer mornings are cooler—visit early. Autumn foliage adds color around the tower. Winter air is clear for distant mountain views.
