Following a tradition started in Paris with the Eiffel Tower (330 metres), the Fukuoka Tower was constructed for an Expo back in 1989, it’s 234 metres high but apart from 3 floors it’s merely a shell, just like the one in Paris. The lift takes you to the viewing platform, where, not surprisingly, you get great views and find great photo opportunities. The floor below has a small restaurant and that’s it. It was ¥1000 to get in, about £5. You get a complimentary photo with that which is a little bigger than a postage stamp but merely a ploy to persuade you to buy something bigger, we bought the fridge magnet, it was cheap -relatively.
