Overview

The Tokyo Sky Tree, Japan's tallest structure, opened two years ago. At the base of the tree, which is visited by 100,000 people a day, people are pressing their shutters in various positions to capture the giant tower on their cameras. Some are students who have saved up enough money to climb the tree someday, while others are foreigners who are visiting Japan for their golden wedding anniversary. And at night, young people from all over the Kanto region gather here. Three days at the foot of the giant radio tower, a new landmark in Tokyo that continues to attract people.
