[2025 Nagoya Attraction] Travel Guide for Higashiyama Sky Tower (Updated Jul)

Nagoya Higashiyama Sky Tower is located in Chikusa Ward, Nagoya City. It stands on a 134-meter-high tower. Because it is built on an 80-meter-high hill, the total altitude is 214 meters. The exterior design of Nagoya Higashiyama Sky Tower is unique and eye-catching. The exterior of the tower combines modern architectural style, uses a lot of glass and steel, and shows simple and smooth lines. The tower's observatory is located 100 meters above the ground, offering spectacular panoramic views of the city, from which visitors can overlook the beautiful scenery of Nagoya city, including landmark buildings such as the JR Central Building and Nagoya Dome. On a clear day, you can even see the magnificent views of Mount Ontake and the Suzuka Mountains in the distance. The tower has a 360-degree panoramic observation room, allowing visitors to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Nagoya from all angles. There is also an observation restaurant on the top floor that provides full Western meals, allowing people to enjoy delicious food while appreciating the beautiful scenery. Additionally, admission to the Higashiyama Sky Tower is relatively cheap, with adult tickets costing just 300 yen, and a combined pass with the Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens costs 640 yen, making this beautiful viewing spot easily accessible to more visitors. #2024 Travel Review #Japan Travel

I've been there many times. You can enter for 640 yen as a set with Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens, which are located on the same premises. You can get a panoramic view of Nagoya city, and although it's nice during the day, I recommend going at night! The night view is amazing. I recommend spending the morning to evening at the zoo and then climbing the tower in the evening.

If you’re heading to the Higashiyama Zoo then you should definitely get the combo ticket to also do the sky tower. It’s a landmark of the city and you can see it as soon as you get close to the zoo, it has a very striking design and offers great views of the city and the zoo. You can take the lift to the 4th and 5th floor for the viewing floors then climb the stairs to the 7th floor for a smaller viewing deck and the restaurant (opens at 11am) Not only do you get great views of the zoo and the city you can experience the retro feel of the tower - the design is very old futuristic as if you’re in a 1980’s sci fi film. There are places to buy souvenirs, take photos and use coins to operate the binoculars. If you look very closely you can see all the landmarks of Nagoya in the distance! The ticket came in the combo deal for the zoo but you can also buy additional tickets at the base of the tower. #getgoing2025 #zoo #travel #japan #nagoya #landmark

This was my first time to spend a whole day sightseeing in Nagoya. If you are going to sightsee in Nagoya, I recommend the Nagoya Municipal Subway 1-Day Pass. You can travel around Nagoya for a fixed price. The first place I visited was Koshoji Temple, a 5-minute walk from Yagoto Station on the subway. It is open 24 hours a day, so you can come in the morning. The five-story pagoda, an important cultural property, is worth seeing. Then I went to Higashiyama Sky Tower. You can get a panoramic view of the Nobi Plain. Next, I headed for Nagoya Port. Here you can find the Fujiya Aquarium, which was once used for Antarctic observation, and the Maritime Museum. It is very worth seeing, so I recommend it. Next, I went to the Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology. This place is really amazing. With Toyota's enormous assets, the exhibits are surprisingly extensive. You can learn more about Toyota's origins, spinning and cars. It's also cheap. If you go to Sakae at night, you can see a beautiful view like the first picture. Although I didn't introduce them this time, Nagoya has a lot of delicious food. I definitely recommend you visit. #Spring0yenTrip

This Higashiyama Sky Tower is located inside Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens in Aichi Prefecture. Locals call it the Pencil Tower because its shape resembles a pencil. The night lighting is very attractive and you can get a 360° view of Nagoya city. Be sure to go and make some memories with your loved one. #Sakura2024 #CoupleTrip #Trip

Nagoya Trip I went to Higashiyama Sky Tower, which is next to Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens. There is a direct route from the zoo when it closes, so if you go to Higashiyama Sky Tower before the zoo closes, it's a great shortcut. The admission fee is also reasonable at 300 yen. Please be sure to stop by after you've been to the zoo. ⁡ #Sakura2024 #HigashiyamaTower #HigashiyamaSkyTower #NagoyaTrip

[Higashiyama Sky Tower] This tower is located inside Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens, one of the largest zoos in Japan! It is 134m tall and stands on a hill about 80m high, so the observation deck is quite high! At night, you can see the night view of Nagoya, which has been selected as a Japanese night view heritage 👍 During the day, you can see the view far into the distance, so you can enjoy it at any time of the day. There is also a restaurant, so it is a recommended tourist spot to have dinner while watching the beautiful night view after visiting the zoo!

Another attraction in Nagoya that became a free pass during the Autumn Festival is Higashiyama Sky Tower. Located right next to the Higashiyama Zoo, this tower has a lot to offer. First, it has an observatory deck. From the observatory deck is a great view of Nagoya City. We were there on a Sunset. It was such a great sight. Next, there is a restaurant on the topmost floor of the tower. I think they offer a buffet meal for a handsome price. Overall, it's such a great place to visit. Good thing we were able to visit it for free. #wintergetaway
