The symbol of Tokyo Ikebukuro
Sunshine 60 Observatory
The Sunshine City 60 Observatory is a landmark in Ikebukuro, offering a 360-degree panoramic view of Tokyo day and night from a height of 251m.
It's perfect for family trips or dates, as you can enjoy it comfortably indoors regardless of the weather or season!
I highly recommend the Tokyo Metro Pass, a combination product, to independent travelers as it allows you to solve all of Tokyo’s transportation needs in one go. Why not make a reservation now and easily visit the observatory using this all-purpose transportation?
Tokyo Ikebukuro Skyscraper Observatory
Sunshine 60 Tenbo Park
At the time of its completion, it was the tallest building in Asia and is Ikebukuro's representative complex cultural space.
It is a great place to visit with your lover, friends, or family as it has various entertainment spaces including an aquarium, culture, shopping, and exhibition halls. You can enjoy the view comfortably regardless of the day or night, season, or weather!
A night view that inspires admiration
The 360° Tokyo panorama from 251m above sea level is spectacular, with no tall buildings nearby, allowing you to see far into the distance. At night, you can enjoy the city’s glittering nightscape, recognized as a Japanese nightscape heritage site, and the sights of Tokyo Tower, Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, and the Metropolitan Expressway with cars passing by are spectacular.

Tokyo's sunset viewing points
When the weather conditions are right, you can see the sky and streets changing into colorful sunset colors as day turns to night. Are you worried about bad weather? If the weather is bad, you may see rare phenomena such as 'rain pillars', 'fan lights that look like angels descending', and 'lightning'.
Also, the fantastic Diamond Fuji, where the sun sets over the summit of Mt. Fuji a few times a year, and the full moon lighting up the city's night sky are highly recommended!
A leisurely and leisurely time
During the day, it creates an open resting space with various views, BGM that lets you feel nature, and aroma effects, and at night, the lighting, aroma, and BGM change, transforming it into a space with a more emotional feel.
Unlike other observatories, there are relatively few crowds, so it's a great place to enjoy some leisurely time under the sky of Ikebukuro and make some memories!
Tokyo Metro Pass
The Tokyo Metro Pass is a product that allows you to use lines operated by Tokyo Metro and Toei, and is a filial piety product that also provides additional discounts at over 350 facilities.
However, the Tokyo subway is quite complicated and it is very difficult to find out which lines are Tokyo Metro and which are Toei Line.
In such cases, you can download the 'Tokyo Subway Guide & Offline Map' or 'Tokyo Metro Subway Map & Route' apps or use Google Maps to check which line the station near you is on!
If you want to see a more expanded version of the subway map, click Download Map to download the map to your smartphone. It's in Korean, so it'll be very useful.
