Observation deck is very inexpensive (¥770) and offers beautiful views of the city, with stationary binoculars that are free to use. Tawawachan, the tower mascot, is omnipresent and beyond adorable.

Really great welcome to Kyoto when you walk out of the station to see this. Note where it is in relation to the rest of the city & it becomes a great waypoint for when you're biking all over.

Excellent view for ¥770. It's closed at 9pm, don't go around 8:30 'cause you won't have enough time to look around. I wish I could be with my Pearl

There's a marketplace at the base of the tower that offers a wide selection of varying types of gifts and souvenirs, many of them quite affordable. It's a no-brainer to stop in when at the station.

Just outside of Kyoto Station, inexpensive, featuring wonderful views of the city. Come at night and use the binoculars! The level of detail you can see is incredible.

worth a visit. good multimedia equipment for a first impression of city and make plans where to go
Tom Van GoylenMarch 17, 2015
The free binoculars are great, you can see so much detail throughout the whole city! Personally I enjoyed this more than Tokyo Tower!

Not so crowded as all the other attractions in Kyoto. Even though it’s a small city with not many tall buildings it still offers a good view.
FerasDecember 6, 2015
The landmark of Kyoto. Its the highest building where you can view the city from a height of 131 meters.

Great views of Kyoto. Must see especially if it's so close to Kyoto station!
Jordi LlobetSeptember 26, 2015
No need to go there. Nice views, but overpriced and full of people. Also, the way to the top is a marathon of "stop and optional-pay" of different and useful stuff.
Harley AcresMarch 4, 2012
Right across from Kyoto Station, this is the tallest thing in the city. Some dislike it's modernity in traditional Kyoto.
Marie-Eve JournetOctober 18, 2017
Come at the sunset for a good point of view on Kyoto and moutains

Kyoto Tower, finally here! The landmark of Kyoto, located in front of the ultra-modern Kyoto Station. Love the view!

770yen, not Much thing to see. Good but i would go for an okonomiyaki with 770yen
Olivier PirnayJuly 17, 2012
A very nice place to see the entire city of Kyoto ! Must go on the top and pay the price !

Tallest building in Kyoto! Very cool!

Worth it on a clear day.

Great view of Kyoto!
Rami IsmailNovember 14, 2016
It's a tower, but by all accounts it's underwhelming. Not very good for photos due to the big red structure.
Don ZorroJuly 12, 2012
Use der binocolar as tripod for your DLSR and get great photos...

京都タワーが大嫌いな人、ここお勧めします。ここに登るとどこの方角向いても京都の街に京都タワーが見えません(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ

展望カフェがデート向きやしおすすめです。タワー階下の“京都タワーサンド”と、展望台とでお土産が異なり、京都タワーらしいお土産やったら展望台に上がったほうが良いです。30秒で終わる手相占いがよう当たると人気です。地下には大浴場があり、朝7時から入れます。

京の町家の瓦葺きを波に見立て、海のない京都の街を照らす「灯台」をイメージしています｡　高さ131ｍは、設計当時の京都市の人口をもとに設定｡　高さは、景観条例に違反していますが、タワー自体は規制対象となる「建設物」ではなく、あくまでも下部ビルの「屋上工作物」という解釈です｡

Muy buenas vistas de Tokio. Os aconsejo subir de noche. Hay prismáticos para ver de cerca, algunos con unos aumentos extraordinarios.
Mihail KazanchevJune 2, 2017
Башня невысокая, всего 131 метр, смотровая площадка на высоте 100 метров, билет 770 йен, для школьников скидка в зависимости от возраста.

雨の時は展望台下階からの方がガラスに水滴がついておらずきれいに景色を眺めることができます。

Cidade movimentada trânsito lento, entretanto com muita cultura vários museus e cultura Japonesa

공짜인 망원경으로 청수사까지 잘 보여요. 전망대가 아담하니 사람으로 붐비는 웬만한 타워보다 좋은 듯. 여행의 시작보다는 마무리에 볼만합니다.

京都タワーの展望室に設置されている望遠鏡は無料で使用できます。B3には浴場があります。夏場は有り難いですね。

生粋の京都人には、この京都タワーと河原町御池のホテルオークラと、京都駅ビルは京都の三大要らんものらしいです。
Fuyuhiko TakayaMarch 1, 2020
竣工1964年。京都駅の周辺から大体どこからでも見える。今となってはレトロ調で街とも調和している(ように見える)。

「北山通と京都タワーはほぼ同じ高さにあるというのは俗説」。実際は北山通と東寺五重塔が同じくらいの高さだそうです。
Akku chanJuly 17, 2020
京都駅を出た瞬間に目に入る。伝統的に否定的な意見もあるが、誰がどう言おうと間違いなく京都のランドマーク。

Piano terra ok per souvenir. Torre da andarci di sera per vedere tutta Kyoto by night **

かなり古くて展望室が少々カビ臭い。けど京都の街並みが一望できます。双眼鏡が無料で利用できます。
