Introducing a popular spot where you can take photos with Tokyo Tower in the background, and a scenic cafe where you can see Tokyo Tower right in front of you📷✨
📍 Akabanebashi Intersection — Classic Tokyo Tower Photo Spot
A classic shooting point that captures Tokyo Tower head-on. If you take photos from the north side crosswalk of the intersection, the silhouette of the tower towering between buildings stands out beautifully. Especially at night, the lights from cars and the illumination create a magical shot📸
Access: A short walk from Akabanebashi Exit of Toei Oedo Line and Toei Mita Line "Akabanebashi Station." This spot offers a view of Tokyo Tower right in front of you.
Address: Around 4-9 Shibakoen, Minato City, Tokyo 105-0011

☕ TERA CAFE SHIEN ZOJOJI — Cafe inside Zojoji Temple Grounds
A Japanese modern-style cafe located within the grounds of Zojoji Temple. Popular as a "temple cafe," it is a rare place where you can relax while looking at Tokyo Tower right in front of you.
During the day, it’s perfect for a break from sightseeing, and since they serve alcohol, it’s also great for daytime drinks! Popular items include the "Freshly Squeezed Mont Blanc" and Japanese sweets🌰 The recommended seats are the terrace seats in front of the shop :)
Address: 4-7-35 Shibakoen, Minato City, Tokyo (inside Zojoji Temple grounds)
Hours:
Weekdays: 10:00–17:00 (Last Order 16:30)
Weekends & Holidays: 9:30–17:30 (Last Order 17:00)
Access: 4 minutes from Shibakoen Station on the Toei Mita Line
3 minutes from Onarimon Station

📷 Akabanebashi Intersection is a popular photo spot where you can capture Tokyo Tower head-on. After quietly taking photos from the sidewalk or safety zone, we recommend moving to "TERA CAFE SHIEN ZOJOJI" inside Zojoji Temple to relax with Japanese sweets and coffee while enjoying the view of Tokyo Tower. Combining photography and a relaxing cafe experience is a great plan for a day of sightseeing in the city center!
