Hell

As known to all
The dirtiest of all
The trouble to all
The home of all evils..... Is Hell !
The careless of all
The painful of all
The sinful of all
The abode of demons and devils...Is Hell!
The deadliest of all
The crooked of all
The most wicked of all
The cursed of all
The destiny of ghosts and witches...Is Hell!
But the worst of all is the one on this earth
That teases and captures you
And makes you devoid of truth...If is the darkest Hell!

Tokyo Skytree

The Tokyo Skytree is a broadcasting, restaurant, and observation tower in Sumida, Tokyo, Japan.
          Standing 634 meters (2,080 feet ) tall, it is the second tallest structure in the world after the Burj Khalifa (829.8) and the tallest structure in Japan.       
        The tower is the main television and radio broadcast site of many companies for the Kanto region, after the Tokyo Tower couldn't give full broadcasting coverage because of the surrounding high-rise buildings. It is privately owned by Tobu Railway Corporation.
       What's spectacular about this tower is its two observation decks which offer spectacular views out over Tokyo. The two enclosed decks are located at heights of 350 and 450 meters respectively. A large shopping complex with an aquarium is located at its base.             
        

 Designed by the Japanese architectural firm Nikken Sekkei , the structure is earthquake resistant. It uses ancient technology to withstand earthquakes, like Pagodas that have a central pole called a shinbashira that diffuses seismic vibrations and keeps the the whole thing from falling down. A central concrete tube runs almost the entire height of the tower . This tube is fastened to the sides of the tower with fuel dampers, invented by NASA, which allows the tube to sway without hitting the sides of the tower.

Construction of Tokyo Sky Tree started in July 2008 and opened in May 2012.
    
A visit to the Tokyo Skytree starts on the 4th floor where the tickets for the first observation deck ( but not for the second deck ) are sold. A fast and smooth elevator ride takes visitors to the top floor of the first observation deck can be purchased. Visitors then access the second deck before descending back to the lower floors of the first observatory where they board the elevator down to the tower's exit on the 5th floor.     


  • The figures 6 ( mu ), 3 (sa ), 4 (shi ) stand for “ Musashi ", an old name of the region where the Tokyo Skytree stands.
  •  The total cost of the Tokyo Skytree is reported to be about 65 billion JPY( 806 million USD ).
