Popular sightseeing spot "Sapporo TV Tower" which is also a symbol of Sapporo city. This TV tower is a radio tower located in Odori Koen park whose address is Chuo-ku, Sapporo city, Hokkaido. (As of 2016 it is not used as radio transmission facility.)
Sapporo TV Tower, constructed in 1957 (Showa 32), has 147.2 meters high and the total construction cost was 170 million yen. The tower is designed by Mr. Tachu Naito, who is a famous designer and planed "Tokyo Tower" and "Tsutenkaku" in Osaka as well.
In 1961 Mr. Matsushita Konosuke came up with the idea to build a giant electric clock at the bottom of TV tower's observatory floor, which was later donated by his company, Matsushita Electric Industrial co. ltd (currently Panasonic), hoping "If we put a clock, people would definitely look at it." As Mr. Matsushita expected Sapporo TV Tower became a symbol of Sapporo city and many people look at the clock even now. Furthemore, a lot of tourists visit the TV tower observatory floor for sightseeing and admire the superb view of Sapporo city.
In addition, Sapporo TV Tower is used as scenes of films, such as "Godzilla vs King Ghidorah", "Godzilla vs Spacegodzilla" and "The last love song on this little planet". But it is often badly destroyed. :p
