Roppongi Keyakizaka Dori — Local services in Tokyo

Tokyo Tower + winter illumination + clear night = amazing scenary with Tokyo Tower in the background.

Although this is a tourist trap, I do admit the shots you can get of the winter illumination together with Tokyo Tower in the background is as Keanu Reeves would say "Breathtaking!".

Do keep in mind that the two main spots for photography of the Tokyo Tower scene which are overflowing with tourists: Crosswalk -- Police will be there to control the crowd and traffic to allow tourist to take the pic at the crosswalk Overhead bridge -- There will be officials to guide the flow of traffic to prevent people from congesting the overhead bridge and blocking access...

Visited here during November last month for the Illumination. It is very beatiful. You can take photos of the Illumination street with Tokyo tower in the background either at the crossing on the roads or at the overpass pedestrian bridge. Taking photos from the overpass is bery hard since there are so many people and its quite hard to get a good spot so maybe you can go down on the crossing to take a shot is a better option. And be careful of traffic, during busy time, there traffic controller that will control the crossing to avoid any unwanted accidents. Please...

Went here on our last night in Japan, especially to see the Christmas lights. It was very pretty. Didn't know it went viral and such a chaos on the zebracross. Been observing how it went and at the end I joined the crowd to take pictures like them, but not so good. I only stopped for a few seconds and continued walking, but others stoped quite long until the staff yelled 😅

Later when we walked back to the station, we found another spot that is crowded but more safe. It was inside Roppongi building on the bridge.
