Today I sent this postcard to a girl in Taiwan via Postcrossing. Her wish list on her profile said "Most famous landmark, city views of your country", so I picked this card for her - our new symbol of Tokyo.
This is Tokyo Sky Tree, a new TV broadcasting tower located not too far from Asakusa, one of the popular sightseeing destinations in Tokyo. It's 634m (2080.5 feet) tall that makes it the second tallest in the world next to Burj Khalifa in Dubai. You can learn more about it in the following link.
Tokyo Sky Tree will open on May 22, 2012, and lots of people have been trying to get the tickets for the observation deck. As heavy congestion is expected, only prior reservation tickets with the date and time already set are available for the first 50 days, and afterwards you can buy the ticket at the door. I'd love to see the 360-degree view of Tokyo from the observation deck, but I think I will wait until it becomes less crowded.
By the way, I took this picture a couple of weeks ago. :) It was a lovely day with clear blue sky, and I saw lots of people taking pictures of Tokyo Sky Tree. :)
Postcrossing経由で、台湾の女性に絵葉書を送りました。希望カードのリストに「有名な建造物」とあったので、東京の新名所、東京スカイツリーの絵葉書を送りました。高さ634mと、ドバイのブルジュ・ハリーファに次いで世界第二位の高さを誇る電波塔です。その開業は2012年5月22日と迫っており、多くの人が展望台へのチケットを手に入れようと必死です。混雑が予想されるため、当面は日時指定の事前予約のみ可能で、その後当日券の購入ができるようになります。展望台からの眺めは気になりますが、少し混雑が落ち着いたら行ってみようと思います。ちなみに写真は、最近撮ったものです。
