  • So we are in Asakusa

  • Well not Asakusa techinically. Oshiage

  • at Skytree.

  • One of the tallest buildings in Japan

  • and the second tallest building in the world.

  • This is my first time here, so I'm pretty excited

  • but I also have a pretty bad fear of heights.

  • And we're gonna go all the way to the top

  • so we'll see how this goes. Let's check it out.

  • So, I just found out that there's

  • a thing called a Fast Skytree ticket

  • for international vistors

  • It's a little bit more expensive.

  • It's only 300 yen more expensive,

  • but you can get past a lot of the lines

  • Definitely worth it, if your wanting to get here and have

  • the rest of your vacation to spend.

  • The waits here are pretty long.

  • So I would recommend going with this route if you can.

  • This is the Fast Skytree Ticket Counter.

  • So we're only on the first of the two observation decks.

  • This is like 350 meters up in the sky.

  • It's actually beautiful weather today.

  • So you can see Mt. Fuji. I don't know

  • how well the camera will pick it up, but I can catch it.

  • It's so fantastic.

  • I actually feel better about this because there's two,

  • the one on top and the one on bottom.

  • So worse case scenario, I fall through the top one,

  • I still got the bottom one to catch me

  • and just have a mini heart attack.

  • Wow....

  • So I'm gonna film this way

  • that way I don't have to look behind me.....

  • Nope can't do it. I'll watch the video later.

  • This is me filming from the second highest...

  • point...

  • in the world.

  • Actually the way this is set-up

  • is it has a little...walkway that wraps around the entire tower.

  • We're currently at the highest point on Tokyo Skytree.

  • That's it for today's video

  • Definitely worth checking out

  • especially if you DON'T have a fear of heights.

  • If you come here, it's not just the gallery not the gallery...

  • the observation deck...

  • There's also shops, shopping, restaurants

  • and Solamachi downstairs.

  • If you come here, climb up to the top, have a good time, come back down to the bottom and do some shopping.

  • Anyways, this is all for today's video. Peace.

So we are in Asakusa
