Forza Horizon 6 Guide: Where To Find Tokyo Tower For The Photo Challenge
You'd think a massive, bright red lattice tower standing over a thousand feet tall would be impossible to miss, but video game geometry has a weird way of hiding things in plain sight.
The seasonal shift is officially live, and the Autumn weather is bringing a fresh batch of tracking objectives to Japan. If you're currently tearing up the asphalt to secure your weekly progression points, you've probably noticed the #TokyoTower Photo Challenge sitting in your menu. Clearing this specific photo op hands you some vital tokens to help build your collection, but navigating the dense city streets can get surprisingly disorienting when you're moving at two hundred miles per hour.
Locating The Tower
Yes, as shocking as it might sound, the Tokyo Tower is located right in the middle of Tokyo City. It's an iconic landmark, but the dense urban grid can swallow it up if you're looking at your mini-map instead of the skyline.
The absolute fastest way to find it is to use the overworld map to look for the Tokyo City Food Delivery Job icon. Once you spot that blue bag marker on your map, just drive down the street heading directly south for a few seconds. You'll run straight into the base of the massive red structure. If you haven't even unlocked that section of the highway network yet, you can refer to my Forza Horizon 6 festival playlist series 1 breakdown to see how to progress your campaign milestones and clear out the map's fog of war.
Snapping The Correct Shot
Once you're parked underneath the massive metal beams, you can pull your camera rig out. To boot up Photo Mode, just tap Up on your D-pad if you're playing on a controller (or hit the P key if you're clacking away on a keyboard).
Bypassing The Car Requirement
The best part about this specific challenge is that the game doesn't actually care about your vehicle. You don't need to spend half an hour perfectly positioning your front bumper or wiping clean the digital dirt from your tires. You don't even need to have your car in the frame at all. Just angle your camera upward, make sure the actual base of the red tower is visible in the viewfinder, and snap the shutter button.
Collecting Your Loot
Pulling the trigger instantly checks off the objective and hands you some great rewards. You'll immediately unlock the "Oooh...Shiny!" exclamation phrase, which you can equip inside the Forza Link submenu to flex on people during multiplayer lobbies.
More importantly, the game gives you two seasonal points that feed directly into your weekly reward track. Those points are crucial if you're trying to unlock the 1997 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec at 15 points or the 1991 Honda CR-X SiR at 30 points. You're definitely going to want those exclusive platforms in your garage, especially since buying vintage machinery outright from the Autoshow will completely liquidate your bank account. You can take a look at my guide to the Forza Horizon 6 most expensive cars to see exactly how absurd the pricing gets for legendary top-tier vehicles.
Maximizing Discover Japan Points
If this is your very first time photographing the structure, the game will also slap an extra 100 Discover Japan Points into your journal.
These points are incredibly valuable because they directly fuel your Stamp collection. Accumulating Stamps is the primary way you trigger rumors for hidden Barn Find locations and unlock the ability to purchase new player houses across the regions. (And trust me, you want those houses for their permanent economic bonuses).
Just make sure you get this done before the weekly clock runs out. The Autumn challenges are on a strict timer and will vanish completely when the Winter snow hits on Thursday, June 4, at 7:30 AM Pacific Time (10:30 AM Eastern Time for those on the East Coast). Once that deadline passes, the rewards are locked away, so go grab your picture before the weather turns.
