Dropped by today to check out the famous 26th-floor observation deck. Elevator tip: you gotta take it from the 2nd floor because apparently Tokyo architects like to haze tourists before rewarding them with panoramic views.
On a clear day, you can see Mt. Fuji majestically lurking in the distance like Japanâs ultimate mic drop. Today? Fuji was playing hard to get behind the haze. But still â the endless sprawl of Tokyo makes you feel like a single cell in an over-caffeinated ant colony.
The café up here is perfectly fine, but explain this to me like Iâm five: how do you name a building Carrot Tower and not sell carrot cake? Thatâs a marketing miss so large it should be a Harvard case study. âLesson one: brand synergy, people.â
Bonus points for the FM 83.4 radio station broadcasting live from the observation deck. Nothing screams âTokyoâ like pensioners chilling outside the glass booth while a woman with an anime voice reads the traffic report for Setagaya.
Overall: âïž Free views (rare in Tokyo) âïž Clear-day Fuji flex âïž Weird café branding âïž Live radio energy
