Im Rahmen des Englischunterrichts der SE1a «besuchten» wir New York City. Das Stadtbild von New York City ist von Wolkenkratzern geprägt. Inspiriert von diesen Skyscrapern liessen wir unsere Fantasie fliegen und zeichneten unsere eigenen Skyscraper.

Viel Spass beim Erkunden und Lesen der Texte.


Kyubi no Kitsune Tower

This unique skyscraper was designed by Chizu Aoyama. It has 100 stories and is about 1449ft./442 metres tall. It was completed in the year of 1946.

In order to get in, you need a ticket which you can buy online. Then you go to the front gate of the big wall around the skyscraper. There you will be guided through a long tunnel by an employee, along with a group of tourists. Once you arrive by the lift and go up, you have entered the Tower. In each «tail» you get to find out something about the myth and explore, the order doesn’t matter. In the «body» there’s tons souvenir shops and food stores, for you to take a look at as well and maybe buy something. If you decide to go to the «head» at the top of the skyscraper, you can admire the beautiful view of the surrounding areas. A big highlight however are the eyes on the Head.
