Positives:

  • Night illumination: The tower lights up after dark, creating a romantic backdrop for photos.
  • Easy access: Located near Akabanebashi Station, the tower is a short walk from public transit.

Challenges:

  • Peak-hour queues: Elevator lines build up at sunset and after 18:00—plan for wait times.
  • Windy decks: The open-air stairs and Main Deck can be breezy, especially in winter.

Tokyo Tower by Night — Simply Magical! I visited Tokyo Tower in the evening around 8:30pm, and the night view of the city was absolutely breathtaking. Seeing Tokyo illuminated from above — with endless lights stretching in every direction — was a moment I’ll never forget. The atmosphere at night is calm and romantic, and the tower itself looks stunning all lit up. The observation deck offers inc...

You can buy tickets on the premises for the main deck (regular price) and the top deck (extra price). The elevator ride and its waiting line to the ma...

Tokyo Tower is a must-visit if you're in the city. It’s 333 meters tall and gives amazing views of Tokyo.

We didn’t go to the top, but just being around Tokyo Tower was an amazing experience! The tower looks stunning up close, especially in the evening when it lights up. The area around it has a nice vibe, with great spots to take photos and enjoy the view. A must-see if you’re in Tokyo! 🇯🇵📸

It was a beautiful view from the levels which are inside at the top. Each level has a fun designs for example the top deck had a whole bunch of mirrors all around it. The elevators for getting up and down the tower were pretty small, each can hold about 6 people comfortably with everyone spaced out but they cram a lot of people in the so it gets hard to stand comfortably. My family and I took the ...

When is the best time to visit Tokyo Tower (Tokyo, Japan)?

In spring, cherry blossoms frame the cityscape. In winter, clear skies offer the best visibility—dress warmly for the open decks.
