At SKY CIRCUS Sunshine 60 Observatory (Ikebukuro, Tokyo), we plan to hold five astronomical viewing events in 2020 (see below).
The second is "Diamond Fuji (* 1)", a rare sight where the sun overlaps the summit of Mt. Fuji from November 12th (Thursday) to 18th (Wednesday) and can only be seen for a few days in a year. We will hold an admiration party.

From the SKY CIRCUS Sunshine 60 Observatory, where there are no buildings that block your view, you can clearly see Diamond Fuji at the moment the sunset sets, if the weather conditions are right.

In addition, this time, the rooftop of the Sunshine 60 Building will be open for the first 30 people (* 10 people each day for 3 days), and you can enjoy "Diamond Fuji" while feeling the atmosphere of the city center at a height of 227m above the ground. ..
On November 13th (Friday), we will hold a viewing party to display images on a monitor using a super-telephoto lens.

In addition, on the same day, with the cooperation of Bic Camera Inc., a professional salesperson who is qualified for the Photomaster certification will give a special lecture on how to take pictures of Mt. Fuji more beautifully and beautifully.

Please take this opportunity to visit the SKY CIRCUS Sunshine 60 Observatory!
