The ideal spot to catch a glimpse of “Diamond Fuji,” a phenomenon which can be seen for only a few days every year – Ikebukuro “SKY CIRCUS Sunshine 60 Observation Deck”
From SKY CIRCUS Sunshine 60 Observation Deck located in Ikebukuro Tokyo, a very rare scene where the rising or setting sun aligns with the peak of Mr. Fuji, causing Mt. Fuji to shine bright like a diamond, hence its name, can be seen. This phenomenon will happen between the 12th of November (Sun.) to the 18th (Sat.).
“Diamond Fuji (*1)” is a phenomenon where the sun aligns with the top of Fuji Mountain when the sun rises and falls. This phenomenon can be seen from areas located to the east or west from Mount Fuji and can only be seen twice a year when the weather around Fuji Mountain is clear.
The view from SKY CIRCUS Sunshine 60 Observation Deck is very clear thus you can see “Diamond Fuji” when the sun is setting if weather conditions are good. An event titled, “Tenbodai de Camera Kyoshitsu” where the staff of the facility will give a lecture on how to take photos of Mount Fuji and beautiful night views will be held.
