Zojoji Temple
増上寺
4.5Est. 30Tokyo, Kanto
Tokyo Tower rises directly behind the Sangedatsumon main gate, the oldest wooden structure in the city. The view puts five centuries in a single frame. For the most dramatic composition, visit after dark, when the tower’s lights cast a glow over the otherwise calm temple grounds.
Local tips
Best view of Tokyo Tower framed by the Sangedatsu Gate. Most atmospheric at night when the tower is lit.
