The cityscape of Tokyo with the two towers. The
Tokyo Skytree (東京スカイツリー) at the background and the Tokyo Tower (東京タワー) at the foreground.
Tokyo Skytree is also the tallest structure in Japan. When it was completed, it overtakes Tokyo Tower. So, this card shows the first and second tallest in this country. Thanks Jobbo.














A ¥84 vase stamp and a ¥63 rabbit stamp were used. Both cancelled by a postmark of Meguro, Tokyo (東京都目黒区) on 13.12.2023.












A note to sender. It seems that postage on postcard around the world has increased so much. Thanks for still sending this card. On Malaysian side, postage for foreign countries also has increased, except for postcard rate. It is 90sen now, before covid, it was 50sen.
