Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building Observatories - visitor guide

東京都庁展望室

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building Observatories look across Shinjuku's towers and the wider city from a working civic complex. Clear conditions may reveal distant mountains, including Mount Fuji, while the closer urban landscape gives plenty to examine on its own. Consult the official north and south observatory calendars before choosing your visit, since their access arrangements can differ.

Why go

The civic setting offers a view of Tokyo from the same complex that houses its metropolitan administration.
