Finally, we boarded the elevator to the first observation deck.

It takes 50 seconds to reach the 350m height. There is no shaking at all. You hardly feel any G force.
The height raised and the remaining height are displayed digitally in meters.
This photo was taken from the 350m first observation deck, "Floor 350".
You can see Tokyo Tower in the middle (looking down).

From the front to the back is Asakusa Street and Komagata Bridge crossing the Sumida River.
The bright vertical street on the center right is around Asakusa 1-chome.
To the right of that is Sensoji Temple. The black area above and behind that is Kaminomori.
The bridges over the Sumida River are, from the left, Kuramae Bridge, Umaya Bridge, Komagata Bridge, Azuma Bridge, the Capital of Isesaki Line, and Kototoi Bridge.

Asahi Building Headquarters and the Fireball Object
It overlooks the Narihira 1-chome intersection on Asakusa Street.
(Telephoto) This photo gives you a sense of the height.
Sumida River (Sakura Bridge, Shirahige Bridge)
The rooftops of the 5th and 6th floors of the OPTART building can be seen above the wide white building to the right of the brown apartment building in the center.
It's a little greenish.
Kameido Station is on the top right. OPTART headquarters is on the top center. The Arakawa River and Hirai Ohashi Bridge are in the background.

The glass floor on Floor 340, the lowest floor of the First Observation Deck
I tried riding it and it wasn't scary at all.
Apparently Tokyo Tower was scarier.

Tembo Galleria ticket booth
Generally, tickets are purchased individually.
The wait time is about 30 to 40 minutes.
When you arrive at the first observation deck on floor 350, immediately purchase the admission ticket for the Tembo Galleria on the same floor.
We recommend that you get in line to purchase your tickets and get to the Tembo Galleria early.
The view is better from 450m above ground, 100m higher than from floor 350.
(However, this is recommended when visibility is good.)
Enjoy the height at the Tembo Galleria and explore each floor of the First Observatory.
The spots you want to check are the glass floors on floor 340. There are two spots on the outside and one on the inside.
(Smaller glass floors). They are not the same, so
Let's look around one by one. Each floor has escalators and stairs.
When moving, use the nearest one that is empty. There are cafes on each floor.
There are elevators for the disabled and elderly, so please feel free to ask the staff.
You can receive customer service on par with that of a hotel or Disneyland.
The fee to access the skywalk is separate.
Finally, we are in front of the elevator to the second observation deck aerial corridor on the top floor.
When getting on an elevator, it is recommended to sit as far back as possible.
If you look up at the ceiling at the back, you'll see a window that gives you a view above.
If you are unlucky enough to be near the entrance, try to get to the front row.
Through the door you can see a little bit of the outside scenery, including the steel frame.

The shuttle bus stop is on the 1st floor. It costs 200 yen to Ueno.
I just climbed out of the hotel window.
The sky trees looked beautiful.
