Do you know the tallest towers and buildings in Japan? In this article, we are going to see the tallest skyscrapers in Tokyo and a complete list of the tallest buildings in all of Japan.
Most of these skyscrapers are designed for office and commercial use, but some have their space open to tourism, allowing you to dazzle the city view. We will mainly see those from the city of Tokyo, but we can mention others.
Before quoting Tokyo I want to mention a special place in Osaka called Umeda Sky Building, one of the funniest skyscrapers I visited in Osaka city. As the focus of this article is Tokyo and a ranking, I decided to quote him first.
