The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building is in Shinjuku. From its observation deck on the top floor, you can look down on the glittering neon city of Tokyo, a city that never sleeps. And after sunset, it's especially amazing for Tokyo night views!

Not only is there no admission fee but it is also easily accessible. How about spending some time watching the view as it changes from a golden twilight to the shining neon light of the evening?

As the name suggests, Roppongi Hills is in Tokyo's central district of Roppongi and is also popular for its vibrant nightlife.

You can look up at the starry sky and gaze out at gorgeous Tokyo night views from 270 meters above sea level from the Sky Deck on the roof.

Seaside Top is the name of the observatory on the 40th floor at the top of Tokyo's World Trade Center.

The superb view from the Skyward Eye deck, which is 350 meters above the ground, as well as the view from the Skyward Eye corridor, which is 450 meters above the ground, are simply breathtaking. Since it is a popular spot for Tokyo night views, it can get crowded on Saturdays and Sundays. However, the Fast Skytree Ticket is available for tourists, shortening your wait time significantly, so this is certainly a huge recommendation.
