Tokyo's seat of power is stunning and distinctive - an enormous grey granite com-
plex designed by the city's master modern architect Tange Kenzō. Head to the
202m-high
observatories
on the 45th floors of the twin towers of Building 1 for
city views, and on a clear day, a glimpse of Mt Fuji to the west.
