Tokyo Skytree Town is a complex that comprises a radio tower, “Tokyo Skytree Tower”; shopping and entertainment complex, “Tokyo Solamachi”; office building “Tokyo Skytree East Tower”; an aquarium; and dome theater. Tokyo Skytree Town is a new destination in Tokyo that offers much more than a view. We recommend stopping by if you’re touring around Asakusa.
