I planned for us to visit early evening so we could catch a view of the sun setting over Toyko's buildings. Since I forgot to bring our passports with us and I didn't make an online reservation beforehand, we waited in the same day ticket line for about twenty minutes. International visitors can bypass the same day ticket line, but need to present their passport. Admission is more expensive with this option.
Once we got our tickets, it was a brief wait for the elevator to take us to the main observation deck on Floor 350. We got to see amazing 360 degree views from 1,150 feet up! You can also purchase tickets for the upper deck to the Skytree's highest point on Floor 450.

My kids were pretty tired from our day, but were powered by the thought of visits to the Hello Kitty Store and the Pokémon Center in Tokyo Solamachi - a large shopping, dining, and entertainment complex located at the base of Tokyo Skytree. We ended the night with shopping and a yummy dinner.
