At night, every skyscraper becomes a dazzling beacon, the lights shining through their windows like stars falling to earth, interweaving with the city's neon lights. The landmark lights atop the buildings twinkle with a unique glow in the night sky, as if telling the story of the city's prosperity to the heavens, making this cityscape, formed by the skyscrapers, exude endless charm and mystery.
Shibuya Sky was a worth visiting. See full panoramic view of the city plus see scramble crossing from the top was amazing. They have indoor and then outdoor. The day I visited, outdoor was closed but still it was worth the experience.

It was worth every penny! I had such a memorable time with my friends. The ticket was at a very great price when I booked it. Very convenient and easy!
We had a flexible schedule, entering the park at 9:00 AM. We were thrilled to have won a Nintendo entry ticket. During the visit, my child suddenly felt unwell and took a break to find the emergency center. The staff was very helpful and offered advice (the emergency center didn't have any medication, so we had to buy it ourselves). They also arranged for the child to rest. While there were some minor hiccups throughout the day, overall, the experience was incredibly enjoyable. Aside from the heat and the long lines, Nintendo was a perfect match. I'll definitely go again.

Too crowded and worst part, the air con not strong. Overall, the scenery is excellent.
The view is wide, with a panoramic view of the entire city of Tokyo. There is a 4-story shopping mall at the bottom of the tower, with food, drinks and souvenirs to buy. I didn't go to the Sumida Aquarium, so I don't know how it was. It was a bit crowded when I got off the tower, so I had to wait in line. The center of the photo in Figure 1 is Sensoji Temple

The enthusiasm and dedication of the Disneyland and DisneySea employees are truly worthy of our learning. My children gave me the motivation and courage to tackle Splash Mountain and Thunder Mountain together. It was an incredible experience, and the memories will be forever in my heart. Thank you, Disney, for fulfilling my childhood dream.
One of the most fun and enjoyable experiences I’ve had in a while. The territory is large, the attractions are fun, impressive and included into 1-day ticket (some have paid priority access available)

Tokyo DisneySea is a lot of fun, especially for adults. The new park, Frozen, is a must-do; the graphics are incredibly detailed and well worth the 40-minute queue. It's best to arrive after noon; in the morning, there are crowds and lines for popular attractions. Entering after 10:30 a.m. will save you from waiting in line for many popular attractions, and most importantly, you can enjoy the ride until closing time. If you arrive too early, buy an Express Pass to get through faster, otherwise waiting in line all day will be a real drain on your energy.
The QR code allows you to enter the park smoothly, which is a great experience. It is also very convenient to bind the QR code to the Dongdi App, which is enough to buy Dpa and the 40th anniversary free express pass, which is good.

There are real-life reconstructions of movie scenes, displays of the creative process, etc. The shops close at 7pm, and the restaurants seem to close at 6:30pm sharp, so those who want to buy things, eat, or take pictures should calculate the time.
Harry Potter fans found the scenery very authentic, and the tour was mostly indoors with air conditioning. The 24-hour Tokyo subway ride, which was purchased with the ticket, was also a great deal. I visited many places in those 24 hours and the subway was worth it.

The observation deck is worth visiting. There is a shopping mall downstairs. I got a coupon for foreigners with a 5% discount. If you spend more than 5,500, you can go to the 3rd floor for tax-free shopping. You can go shopping for a whole day. It is a very good shopping mall. Children in the observation deck are half price. It is recommended that children buy tickets on site for cheaper prices. The 16th floor and below are free. After buying or exchanging tickets on the 16th floor, take the elevator to the 60th floor observation deck. When you look up from the elevator, you can see star-like lights. You can take videos. It feels like traveling through time. It is a very good experience.
I've seen many observatories similar to this, so it was not very spectacular or breathtaking, but overall views are very nice and comfortable surroundings. You can grab a lunch or dinner there or just a cup of coffee and wait for the sunset. There are signs of how to get there for your ticket exchange.

Umeda sky building is particularly impressive if you go late afternoon towards sun set. It about 18 minutes walk from the nearest metro stop but definitely worth visiting. Unfortunately the art museum was closed for the day, didn’t realise is shut so early, nevertheless, if you walk to the top floor, then up the stairs to the outside section, you’ll have spectacular 360 views! You can also eat/drink or just watch if you can get a stool at the large window area. Theres also lots of restaurants and shopping nearby.
Not many people, convenient transportation, right next to Osaka Station.
The circular elevator leading to the platform is full of technology.
The circular platform on the roof offers a panoramic view of Osaka City.
It is said that there is a starry sky trail for night viewing. If you don’t want to queue up at Tsutenkaku, I recommend coming here (2,000 yen per person).

👍 Osaka Sea Tour is worth a visit. 🌸 I finished playing Universal Studios and stayed nearby for one night. I went to the pier in the morning to buy tickets for the ➕ Hall. The cost is shown in the picture (only cash), and a paper will be given with a QR code on it. The boat will arrive on the other side in ten minutes. It is very convenient to scan the code to enter the museum directly. Note that the ticket office does not directly accept some APP orders, and don't make an appointment on the official website. You have to have a foreign mailbox to make an appointment. You can directly enter by buying a joint ticket directly at the pier. 🌸 content in the museum: mainly around a huge ocean pool to visit in a circle, tourists can enjoy the sea creatures of each water layer at three heights in high school and low school. I like this design. There are regular dolphins and penguins feeding performances in the museum. The animals are very active and in good spirits. The staff checks the animal body every day and makes feeding records. The animals live well. The design of the venue is very exquisite, the details are in place, and the experience is good. Souvenir shops can pay Alipay WeChat. recommend. 🌸 Food: After visiting the restaurant on the first floor, there is a light meal for drinks, and you can pay by Alipay WeChat.
It will be a good place for parent-child paradise. The whole itinerary is well planned. Although the aquarium is not big, the animals of all kinds are very cute.
Although there is a little communication barrier due to language problems, you can still appreciate a lot through the wonderful performances of the keepers.
