The wonder of cherry blossoms is brought to new heights at Tokyo Skytree.
What to expect
Once you’re done enjoying the nearby cherry blossoms at Sumida Park, head up to Tokyo Skytree’s Tenbo Observation Deck. See the sakura-themed attractions: from blossoms across the enormous window panes to special photo spots decked out in shades of pink.
At the Sakura Café, try out different themed snacks and drinks, like the Sakura Sora Kenran. The vivid pink and tranquil blues in the glass are just one more reminder of the beauty of Japan’s spring.
