I tend to like old buildings better than new ones, but when I visited the new Hikarie Building it really got my attention. The skyscraper opened in 2012, and has shops, offices, cafes and restaurants, the impressive Theater Orb, galleries, and much more. These photos were taken on the eighth to eleventh floors. I especially loved the spacious, airy Sky Lobby on the eleventh floor. There are many areas with seating and people-friendly decor. Hikarie is a great place to shop, meet friends or simply hang out and enjoy the views and the ambience. Also, I missed it, but I heard the ladies' restrooms are really something!
