Did a trip to Tokyo some time ago...
Decided to stay at a hotel near the Tokyo Skytree...
Just as I entered the hotel room, I was greeted by this scene...
Hmmm, nice...
Standing at 634 meters, it is the tallest structure in Japan at the moment...
For dinner that day, chose to have the 'chanko-nabe' which is a staple for sumo wrestlers...
The structure shot the next morning before sunrise...
And on the other side of the hotel is the green-roofed 'Ryogoku Kokugikan' (National Sumo Stadium)...
In the far background on the right, beyond the high rise buildings, stands the snow-capped Mt. Fuji...
You must have stayed a nice hotel. Edo Tokyo Museum is located next to Kokugikan. :)
ReplyDeleteHave never been to Edo Tokyo Museum yet... thanks for the info...
DeleteWow, those are lovely, wonderful views. The Tokyo Tower is majestic in both time of day. I remember the awe i felt when i was in a hotel in Bangkok with the highest tower in Bangkok in front of me too. It was really a delight.
ReplyDeleteYeap, a delightful view it was...
DeleteWhat a view of Sky Tree you've got from your hotel room. :)
ReplyDeleteLucky to get that room... :-)
DeleteYou got some beautiful pictures from your hotel. The night shots are especially fantastic.
ReplyDeleteNight shots are one of my favorite photo subjects...
DeleteThe structure is majestically beautiful at night. The chanko-nabe looks similiar to sukiyaki.
ReplyDeleteThey do look similar but the style of eating is different...
