Shinjuku Sumitomo Building
The Shinjuku Sumitomo Building, located in Tokyo’s bustling Shinjuku district, is a bold example of 1970s modernist architecture, instantly recognizable by its sharp triangular footprint and open atrium space at the base. Once Japan’s tallest building, it remains a compelling subject for architectural photographers thanks to its unique geometry and clean vertical lines. The building features a free observation deck on the upper floors, offering sweeping views of Tokyo’s skyline, including sights of Mount Fuji on clear days. Situated near Shinjuku Station and easily accessible, it's best visited at sunset or blue hour for cityscape shots with dramatic lighting. (Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan)
