Yokohama Landmark tower-Observatory: Sky Garden

The observatory deck called Sky Garden is located on the 69th floor of the Landmark Tower.

You will need to buy a ticket for 1,000 Yen (about $7.5) in order to have access to the Sky Garden.

 

To get to the Sky Garden, visitors get to ride on the Landmark Tower’s uber-fast elevators. They were constructed as the world’s fastest, and reach speeds of 45 km/h (28 mph), or 12.5 meters per second (41 feet per second). It takes about 40 seconds to reach the Sky Garden on the 69th floor. Since their construction, the elevators have lost their title of “World’s Fastest” to the elevators included in Taiwan’s Taipei 101 building in 2004

 

We are now on the 69th floor.  The elevators are in the back.

 

As soon as you get off the elevator the first thing you see is a view of the city.

This is the North East view of the city.

 

You have a 360 degrees of the city with the 4 corners of the building.

 

The view is simply amazing!
