Kyoto Tower (京都タワ) is another place to visit when you are in Japan. The steel tower is the tallest structure in Kyoto with its observation deck at 100 metres (328 ft) and its spire at 131 metres (430 ft).The 800-ton tower stands atop a 9-story building, which houses a 3-star hotel and several stores. The entire complex stands opposite Kyoto Station.
From the observation deck on the top floor at a height of 100m, one can enjoy a complete 360°view of Kyoto and see Osaka on a clear day.As dusk turns to night the City lights up and the gently sloping ridge of the thirty-six peaks of Higashiyama are beautiful and fantastic.
