Tokyo Skytree Town
Around the base of the Skytree Tower is a mall called the Tokyo Skytree Town that covers multiple city blocks on many levels. As well as boutique stores and restaurants, there is also an aquarium and planetarium. There are also many courtyards and outdoor green spaces which provide a place to rest. Most have impressive views of the Skytree Tower looming overhead.
