The Nagoya TV Tower (名古屋テレビ塔 Nagoya Terebi-tō?) is an electric wave tower in Nagoya. It is the oldest TV tower in Japan, and was completed in 1954. The tower is 180 metres high, and has two observation decks at the heights of 30 metres and 100 metres. In the 1992 movie of Godzilla vs Mothra, the character Battra attacks Nagoya and destroys the tower after being hit by one of the tanks' missiles. This TV tower closely resembles the Eiffel Tower.
