The Experience

“You’re not scared of heights, right?” That’s what Yuki asked as we shuffled into the elevator at Tokyo Tower. I laughed — but honestly, my palms were a little sweaty. The ride up was quick, just a soft hum and that weird feeling in your stomach when you know you’re leaving solid ground behind. Then the doors opened and, wow, it’s just glass and city everywhere. You can see all of Tokyo stretching out — tiny cars, rooftops like puzzle pieces, and somewhere in the haze, Mt. Fuji kind of floating above it all. I didn’t expect to feel so small or so calm at the same time.

There were families with strollers (and a couple of kids pressing their faces to the glass), plus some older folks chatting quietly in Japanese by the windows. Our e-ticket meant we skipped this long line downstairs — I’m not patient enough for those crowds, especially on weekends. Yuki pointed out Skytree off in the distance (it looks even taller from here somehow) and told me about how Tokyo Tower used to be the tallest thing around before all these new skyscrapers showed up. The sun was setting behind clouds that looked like they’d been painted on — orange light bouncing off buildings, making everything feel softer for a minute.

I tried to read some of the signs in Japanese (failed spectacularly), but there’s English too if you need it. There’s something about being up there that makes you want to just stand still for a while — even though people are taking selfies or laughing or pointing things out, there’s this hush under it all. Maybe it’s just me being sentimental but… yeah, I still think about that view sometimes when I hear city noise back home.
