Japan - Tokyo Tower


I finally had a chance to visit the Tokyo Tower, a very tall antenna structure in the middle of the city, designed similar to the Eiffel Tower, but taller.  Here it is at night from the top of teh Roppongi Hills' Mori Building.

The reverse view, from the Tokyo Tower looking at the Mori Building of Roppongi Hills

Up close, it's even bigger

Same view a couple hours later

Looking down at a nearby neighborhood; I actually got lost walking to the tower and wandered this neighborhood for a while

View of the Aoyama cemetery, where I spent the afternoon shooting pictures.
It's the closer of the two big green areas (the far one is one of the palaces)

I never figured out what this was - a lighted circle on the ground near the Tokyo Tower

Very nice Christmas scene at the base of one leg
