About
Exiting the south exit of Ichikawa Station, you are greeted by the towering high-rise building "The Towers West." Boarding the see-through elevator that takes you to the observation facility on the 45th floor, the cityscape gradually shrinks behind the glass, enveloping you in the sensation of ascending into the sky. When the elevator quietly comes to a stop and the doors open, a magnificent panorama from 150 meters above ground unfolds before you.
From the large windows of the observation lobby, you can see the gentle flow of the Edogawa River, with the cityscape of Tokyo spreading out beyond it. On clear days, you can catch a glimpse of the majestic figure of Mt. Fuji in the distance, standing alongside Tokyo Skytree as if nature and human technology are resonating together. Stepping onto the rooftop observation deck, a 360-degree view opens up, and the wind crossing the Edogawa River pleasantly brushes your cheeks. From here, you can see Tokyo Bay, the Disney Resort, and even as far as Mt. Tsukuba.
At dusk, as the sky is dyed crimson, the city lights begin to flicker on one by one. When night falls, a night view like scattered jewels spreads out below. The high-rise buildings of Tokyo shine brightly, and their lights shimmer on the surface of the Edogawa River. This beauty has been selected as one of the "New Three Major Night Views of Japan" and the "100 Best Night Views," captivating the hearts of all who visit.
Inside the observation facility, there is the "i-Link Information Corner," which introduces sightseeing spots and local products of Ichikawa City, where you can enjoy local Japanese and Western sweets that change monthly. Savoring local delicacies with a cup of coffee in the café space while gazing at the expansive view before you is truly a blissful moment.
This observation facility is open to the public free of charge and is easily accessible from the station. As a landmark of Ichikawa City, this place is beloved by many and serves as a sky-high oasis that lets you forget the bustle of everyday life.
