Kyoto Tower is honest to god the city’s shining landmark.

It's where you'll get amazing panoramic views of the city.

If you're only looking for photo opportunities, we found the best vantage points just opposite Kyoto JR/Shinkansen Station.

If you’re up for a little adventure, you can climb the tower for an unforgettable 360-degree view.

Tickets are ¥800 (about $5.50 AUD), and we recommend allowing around 30-45 minutes to fully enjoy the experience.
