After a few days of constant rain, a day of fresh, clear weather compelled me to climb to the top of the building I work in. There's an observation deck on the 19th floor (the highest floor is the 20th floor). Only one other building nearby is taller than where my office is - and nothing else comes very close either, so generally you can enjoy some really awesome views on a clear day!
Anyway, I'll let the photos do the talking:
 |
| Straight out east (opposite direction of Tokyo). Chiba is relatively flat... |
 |
| Slightly southeast of the previous photo. You can see the Tokyo Bay and the Keiyo Industrial Belt factories in the distance! |
 |
| They also have boards of photos and stuff all around the floor explaining the history of Chiba Prefecture. |
 |
Messing around with camera settings and put it on sunset photos.
I think the tiny (tall) buildings in the faaaaar far distance are Makuhari? |
 |
| There are also these photos around most of the windows showing what is what. Spot the Chiba Urban Monorail! |
 |
| The building to the left is the only building taller than my work. Around the center of the photo, you can see a white thing snaking into the distance...that's the Monorail, that I take to and from work everyday! |
 |
| Zoom-in! Chiba's Monorail is the longest suspended monorail in the world. |
 |
| Last but not least, a photo in the direction of the Tokyo area! Can you find the Tokyo Sky Tree? :D |
This area is open to the public - at least during normal working hours, from 9:00am - 5:00pm on Mondays to Fridays! It's totally an office district, so there isn't much around, but if you are in the area on a nice day, you can stop by for some fantastic views!
