Nagoya's much-loved TV tower, completed in 1954, was the first of its kind in Japan. The tower's central location makes its 100m-high Sky Balcony a great place to get the lie of the land. Better still, the sprawling beer garden and Korean barbecue at its base is unrivalled in town. Check the website for special events and occasional night-time illuminations.
