I got off from the tram station near the Odaiba Gundam statue.

I found this set of buildings on the way to the Gundam Statue, so I went into the courtyard to see if there was anything interesting

It was just buildings, so I turned back and walked toward the Gundam Statue again.

The Gundam Statue

The Gundam Statue is situated outside DiverCity Tokyo Plaza in Odaiba, a popular shopping and entertainment district.

The Gundam Statue in Odaiba is a life-sized representation of the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam from the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn.

The statue stands at an impressive 19.7 meters (65 feet) tall.

The statue has a transformation feature, shifting between “Unicorn Mode” and “Destroy Mode.” During this process, parts of the statue move, and the horn transforms into a V-shaped crest.

DiverCity Tokyo Plaza: Shopping, dining, and the Gundam Base Tokyo store.

This overpass walkway leads to shopping centers near the bay.

I looked back at the large street I had just passed after crossing the overpass walkway.

In front of me is Aqua City Odaiba, another mall with waterfront views and dining options.

Next to Aqua City Odaiba is Tokyo Joypolis by SEGA.

In front of me was the Rainbow Bridge.

On my right side is DECKS Tokyo Beach, another shopping and entertainment complex. It is home to the Tokyo Joypolis arcade and quirky museums like the Trick Art Museum.

Tokyo Joypolis, located in the Odaiba district, is one of Japan’s largest indoor amusement parks, operated by SEGA. It offers a unique blend of arcade gaming, virtual reality experiences, and thrilling attractions suitable for all ages.

After Tokyo Joypolis, I walked to Odaiba Marine ParkĀ 

On the way back from Odaiba, I stopped at the Tokyo Tower.

Tokyo Tower is an iconic landmark in Tokyo, modeled after the Eiffel Tower, and stands at 333 meters (1,092 feet) tall. Built in 1958, it symbolizes Japan’s post-war recovery and modernity. It serves as both a broadcasting tower and a major tourist attraction.
