Last update :

This landmark in Fukuoka City was built as a monument of 1989 Asia Pacific Expo (Yokatopia). It is 234m-tall and the top floor has an observation area with a 360-degree panorama over Fukuoka City.

In 2019, the tower was renewed in the 30th commemoration. Under the concept of “Enjoy Fukuoka’s sky and play with the scenery”, the SKY World offers an extraordinary realm of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR). The VR binoculars are equipped with more entertainment functionality and allow you to feel like flying through the air with UFOs and robots zooming by.

Inside the tower, on the 2nd floor of the observation area at 120m above ground, Sky Cafe & Dining Refuge is a favorite place for couples with glass windows all around that feel like a garden in the air.

Fukuoka residents look forward to the seasonal light-up. Around Tanabata Festival on July 7th, Christmas, Valentine, etc. bright lights add a lovely ambience.
