Kaikyō Yume Tower

Surrounded by the majestic scenery of the strait, it was built in July 1996 and is the land symbol of the Guanmen Strait. The height of this observation tower is one of the highest in Western Japan. From the 143-meter-high observation deck, you can not only see Kyushu on the other side, but also the Kanmon Strait and the open sea. Next to the Tower of Dreams is the Shimonoseki International Convention and Exhibition Center, a commercial building where international conferences can be held. The center plays an important role as an international trade base in Shimonoseki.
