The Sylvanian Families Exhibition at Solamachi

I visited the "Sylvanian Families Exhibition" held at Tokyo Skytree's Solamachi! The venue was filled with dioramas recreating small villages and houses in the forest!! ✨ It felt like stepping into a storybook (so happy 😊). There were also displays of dolls and houses from past generations, bringing back nostalgic memories like, "I used to have this one!" At the large photo spot, you could take pictures with the adorable characters, which captivated both adults and children alike 📸. They also had a Solamachi-exclusive stamp rally! (It was free, but I felt a bit hesitant just going to the register to get the stickers.) It was a perfect place to stop by while sightseeing at Skytree! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to be soothed by the gentle world of Sylvanian Families.

#SeptemberDestinations2025 🗼 Basic Information | Tokyo Skytree Address: 1-2 Oshiage 1-chome, Sumida-ku, Tokyo, 131-0045 Access: Take the Tokyo Metro Hanzomon Line or Tobu Skytree Line to Oshiage Station. It's just outside. Taxi from central Tokyo takes about 25-30 minutes and costs 4,000-6,000 yen (depending on transportation). Opening Hours: 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM (Last admission 8:00 PM) Tickets (October 2025): Observation Deck (350 meters): Adults 1,800-2,100 yen Observation Corridor (450 meters): Adults 2,700-3,100 yen (Reservations are recommended online to avoid lines on site.) --- ☁ A City in the Clouds As the taxi pulled up at the foot of the Tokyo Skytree, I couldn't help but look up— The height was a bit dizzying and a bit awe-inspiring. The process of buying tickets, queuing, and taking the elevator was surprisingly smooth. The elevator doors closed, the lights dimmed, and the walls shimmered with stars. Music played, and a few seconds later, the doors reopened, and I was already in the clouds. Tokyo unfolded beneath my feet, like a tranquil painting. The Sumida River shimmered in the sunlight, and the buildings lined up like building blocks. I saw Mount Fuji in the distance, its soft outlines like the shadows of a mountain in a dream. The scenery was so beautiful that I hesitated to speak, fearing my voice would be too loud and shatter the tranquility of the moment. -- 🍵 A short nap by the glass window I didn't specifically go to the restaurant inside the Tokyo Skytree for dinner, but instead bought a hot matcha latte at the coffee corner on the observation deck. The transparent cup reflected Tokyo outside— The green of the matcha intertwined with the gray of the city, creating a painting. Sitting high up, watching the people twinkle like glimmers below, I suddenly felt that life should sometimes be like this— pause and gaze at myself from afar. It turns out that all confusion seems so small from a high vantage point. -- 🌃 The night sky and the reflection of the glass In the evening, the sky began to turn purple. From the observation window, I watched the city lights light up one by one, like countless stars reflected on the world. Couples held hands for photos, while travelers quietly leaned against the railings. I pulled out my phone to snap a picture, only to find myself reflected in the glass— I had become part of Tokyo's nightscape. Before leaving, I bought a Tokyo Skytree pendant at the souvenir shop. The blue and white ornaments resembled a miniature dream. The cashier smiled and said, "I hope the scenery you see today will become your strength." I still remember those words. -- 🌸 Tips: 1. Best Time to Photograph: Entering at 4:00 PM, as sunset and night views transition, is the most recommended time. 2. Transportation Tips: Stroll through the Solamachi shopping center below the Tokyo Skytree; it offers souvenirs, sweets, and a drugstore. 3. Special Recommendation: On a clear day, stand on the 450-meter observation corridor's "glass floor area" for a breathtaking view of Sumida Ward and the Sumida River. --- On the return taxi ride, I leaned against the window, watching the Tokyo Skytree recede into the distance. Its light burned quietly in the night like a slender candle. At that moment, I suddenly understood that the Tokyo Skytree is more than just a Tokyo landmark. Its a place that makes one believe that dreams can truly be so close to reality.
