Dominating the skyline of Hamamatsu, ACT City is its tallest building by a good distance. On the 45th floor there's an observatory from which you can admire the city and surrounding scenery, from the ocean to the south to the mountains inland. Tickets cost ¥500 and are valid for the whole day, so you can go there in the morning for the panorama, then go back after dark in the evening to see the city lights.

Peter, my photo story is "pending approval" by Jessica a Paje. I write my photo stories in the form here at JT, so don't have it in another version, I'm sorry!
