Tower Hall Funabori Observatory タワーホール船堀 展望塔

A free 103 m observation deck on top of a community hall in Funabori, with 360-degree views of Skytree, Tokyo Bay, the Arakawa river bridges and Mt Fuji; one of Tokyos best-kept free viewpoints.

About

Edogawas civic hall next to Funabori Station hides a surprise: a slim tower whose glass-walled deck sits 103 metres above the ground, and it costs nothing. Because the surrounding land is flat delta and low housing, the views are unobstructed in every direction: Skytree almost face-on, the Arakawa and Nakagawa rivers with their trains and highways crossing, Shinjukus towers, the Tokyo Bay waterfront and Disney, and in winter Mt Fuji and the Tanzawa range. Railway fans love watching Toei Shinjuku Line trains glide across the river bridges below. Its rarely crowded, and after dark it becomes a calm night-view spot with no ticket desk.

Highlights

• Free 103 m glass observation deck
• Head-on views of Tokyo Skytree
• Mt Fuji on clear winter days
• Trains crossing the Arakawa river bridges below
• Quiet night views

Tips

• Take the dedicated elevator from the 1F lobby.
• Go on a clear winter day an hour before sunset for Fuji silhouettes and then night views.
• Its 1 minute from Funabori Station on the Toei Shinjuku Line, 20 minutes from Shinjuku.
