Tokyo Sky Tree

The recent addition to Tokyo`s skyline is of course the Sky Tree which opened last year. Although we didn`t actually go up it, we did stay at The Gate Hotel in Asakusa which had great views of the Sky Tree.  At night it is illuminated and there are two illumination patterns which alternate daily. One is Iki (chic and stylish) and the other is Miyabi (elegance and refinement.) The one I saw was Miyabi which is purple, the other design is blue.
