The Tokyo Sky tree is tall, and it reach its full height last months. I do not envy the builders who were working at 634 meters above the ground last months when the worst shaking was going on. 634 meters, to put it in perspective is basically 2 Eiffel Towers, or 18.5 Kärnan, depending or your references. But we should not get overly excited, there are still almost 200 meters to go before the Sky tree would have reached up to that kick ass Burj Khalifa building in Dubai.
This gave me an idea, as part of the lightning design they should have the possibility to show how high up other other buildings and towers would reach. Although, perspective would make them look taller than they are, so maybe not so good idea after all.
If you look closely you can see that the good lens needs cleaning. Annoying spots.
After visiting the tower, I walked towards Asakusa and passed Sumida river.
I think it is some type of riksha wedding, but not sure.
One of those tourist photos you should take, big red torii across the street between Asakusa and Ueno.
Then I took Yamanote from Ueno to Harajuku, went through yoyogi park. Much calmer than last Sunday but still lots of people picnicking and enjoying the last of the sakura.
A vase of summer had to come with me home from the store. Now, some relaxing on the floor while waiting for the beans to get ready to be enjoyed.
