The Yokohama Landmark Tower (横浜ランドマークタワー Yokohama Randomāku Tawā) is the second tallest building and 4th tallest structure in Japan, standing 296.3 m (972 ft) high. It is located in the Minato Mirai 21 district of Yokohama city, right next to Yokohama Museum of Art. Work on the building was finished in 1993. When built, it was the tallest building in Japan until it was surpassed by Abeno Harukas in 2012. When opened, it had the highest observation deck in Japan.
The building contains a five-star hotel which occupies floors 49-70, with 603 rooms in total. The lower 48 floors contain shops, restaurants, clinics, and offices. The building contains two tuned mass dampers on the (hidden) 71st floor on opposite corners of the building.
On the 69th floor there is an observatory, Sky Garden, from which one can see a 360-degree view of the city, and on clear days Mount Fuji.
The tower contains what were at their inauguration the world's second fastest elevators, which reach speeds of 12.5 m/s (41 ft/s)[1] (45.0 km/h (28.0 mph)). This speed allows the elevator to reach the 69th floor in approximately 40 seconds. The elevators' speed record was surpassed by elevators of Taipei 101 (60.6 km/h, 37.7 mi/h) in 2004.
The building was designed by the architecture and engineering division of Mitsubishi Estate, now Mitsubishi Jisho Sekkei and Hugh Stubbins and Associates, later KlingStubbins.

The Shira-Ito Falls (shira=white + ito=thread) on the Shiba River are a unique waterfall in the scenic, lush surroundings of the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park on the western slope of Mt. Fuji.
These falls are the result of two major volcanic eruptions. The ground at the bottom of the falls was formed by eruptions of “Old Fuji” around 100,000 years ago. The ground at the top of the falls was formed by eruptions of “New Fuji” that have occurred during the past 5,000 years.
The falls are easily accessible from Tokyo by either the Tomei Expressway or the Chuo Expressway. There are two large parking lots near the falls which only cost 300 yen for the whole day. (Note that rates might be more expensive if you visit on a national holiday or weekend.)
Happy New Year from Japan! This photo was taken at 4:47pm on Jan 1, 2010 from the Bay Bridge in Yokohama. You can see the city of Yokohama with Mt Fuji clearly visible
in the background.
The shot was taken out of a moving car using a Canon 5D Mark II with a 24-105mm F4L lens set at 58mm in Manual mode at ISO 1600. The aperture is F/5 and shutter speed 1/250. The image is processed using Aperture 2.
