A communications and observation tower built in 1958. It is Japan’s second tallest structure and world’s tallest self-supported steel tower, modelled after Eiffel Tower. It is painted in white and international orange to comply with air safety regulations.
The tower has two decks - main deck at 150m above ground and top deck at 250m. The top deck is Japan’s third highest observation deck, after the two decks at Tokyo Skytree. If you will like to have some street shots of the tower, here is some recommended locations.
