Soaring 634 meters above the Tokyo skyline, Tokyo Skytree is the city's iconic broadcasting tower and one of the beacons of Tokyo as it is the tallest structure in Japan.
The highlight of the Skytree is its observation deck, from which viewers can have panoramic views across the entire city. But standing at its base looking upward is a powerful way to capture the sheer size and importance of Tokyo's sky-high landmark.
