Kyoto Tower gives amazing views and is very affordable.
Kyoto is crawling with tourists (especially around the station). So, we weren't sure if we would just be getting into another tourist trap by going to the Kyoto Tower. But we loved it! The cost was very affordable (compare to similar experiences in the U.S.). I think we paid about $5.50 per adult. For that money it was a huge bargain. The elevator ride to the top gets you some amazing views of the Kyoto area. Yes, the tourist stuff was still there; they try to sell you photos and dump you out at a souvenir shop, but it really is a fun thing to do for the money.

Good sunset views but space too crunched
Visited the tower deck during sunset time. It was a good view to see through Kyoto from the top. Had some good sunset vibes from the top. The atmosphere was crowded because the viewing desk is small and fills up easily. During our visit, there was a group of school children which quickly filled the whole deck. We stayed at the top for about 20 minutes. Admission fee is a bit high for the experience.
