There's a baggage check at the entrance on the first floor, but I was lucky—there was no line at all. Then you can take the elevator up to the 45th-floor observation deck. The view of Tokyo is amazing, and it's free!

Kurayami Matsuri (Darkness Festival)
This is an annual festival of Okunitama-jinja Shrine in Fuchu City, Tokyo. The festival has a history of more than 1,000 years, originating from the "Kokufu-sai / Konomachi " of Musashi Province, and is designated as an Intangible Folk Cultural Asset by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.
Festivals like this are pretty rare in Tokyo. It’s got a long history and really keeps the traditions alive.

Akagi Shrine
This Akagi Shrine is said to have been established in 1300, as a spiritual branch of the Akagi Shrine situated at the foothills of Mount Akagi in Gunma prefecture.
This is a perfect blend of a traditional shrine and modern architecture. There's no sense of conflict at all—it's really impressive how the architect pulled it off.
