The Tokyo Dome is an architectural marvel located in the heart of Tokyo. The dome resembles a huge egg externally, and is air-supported internally by a pressure fan that maintains air pressure to keep the dome elevated. It is home to the Yomiuri Giants baseball team, and plays host to baseball games throughout the year. The dome also holds the distinction of being the biggest concert venue in Japan. International superstars such as, Madonna, Michael Jackson, and the Backstreet Boys have performed at the venue. Located close by is the Tokyo Dome Hotel, an amusement park, restaurants and cafes, and the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. This place is a one-stop entertainment phenomenon!
