Fukuoka Tower, Television tower with observation deck in Seaside Momochi, Japan

The triangular Fukuoka Tower stands at 234 meters tall, covered in more than 8000 half-mirrors that reflect the sunlight across Hakata Bay.

The tower, inaugurated in March 1989, marked the centennial celebration of Fukuoka City and served as a centerpiece for the Asia Pacific Exposition.

Three observation levels at 123 meters high present visitors with views of Fukuoka City, where modern architecture meets traditional Japanese elements.

The tower welcomes visitors daily from 9:30 AM to 10:00 PM, with entrance fees of 800 yen, except for maintenance closure on last Monday and Tuesday of June.

As Japan's highest seaside tower, the structure changes its appearance through seasonal light displays, including winter and summer illumination patterns.
