Forza Horizon 6 Guide: Where To Find Tokyo Tower For The Photo Challenge

Ditch the confusing minimap and head straight to the city center with our quick guide to the Autumn photo challenge.

Quick Answer: Open your world map and locate the blue Tokyo City Food Delivery Job icon. Drive a few blocks directly south of that marker to hit the base of Tokyo Tower. Pull up Photo Mode (Up on the D-pad or P on your keyboard), tilt the camera up to catch the structure, and snap the photo with any car to claim your rewards.

The seasonal rotation is officially in full swing, bringing crisp Autumn weather alongside a fresh set of festival playlist objectives. If you are currently hunting down weekly progression points across Japan, you have likely spotted the #TokyoTower Photo Challenge waiting in your menu.

While a giant, bright orange-and-white lattice tower measuring over a thousand feet tall sounds like it should be impossible to miss, urban map geometry has a funny way of hiding massive landmarks in plain sight. Navigating dense neon city grids at 200 miles per hour can get disorienting fast. Here is exactly how to navigate to the structure, cheese the camera requirements, and pocket your seasonal rewards before the timer runs out.

Pinpointing the Structure on Your Map

Unsurprisingly, Tokyo Tower is nestled right in the heart of Tokyo City. Because the skyline is choked with skyscrapers, relying purely on your tiny minimap will often cause you to miss it entirely.

To find it without driving in circles, follow these quick steps:

  • Open your main overworld map screen.
  • Locate the blue bag icon marking the Tokyo City Food Delivery Job.
  • Fast travel nearby or drive down the main street heading directly south from that marker.
  • Look up, you will run straight into the massive steel base of the tower within a few seconds.

If you are still struggling to navigate the urban sprawl or find yourself hitting performance hiccups in the dense city streets, read our Forza Horizon 6 guide on the best PC optimization settings for high-speed performance to clean up your frame rate and clear out any VRAM issues before your shoot.

How to Check Off the Photo Requirements

Once your tires are resting under the massive metal beams, it is time to pull out your camera rig. Press Up on your controller’s D-pad (or tap the P key on a keyboard) to transition into Photo Mode.

The absolute best part about the #TokyoTower challenge is that the game has zero strict vehicle restrictions. You do not need a multi-million credit hypercar, you do not need to clean the road grime off your fenders, and you do not even need to frame your vehicle in the shot.

Simply angle your lens toward the sky, make sure the lower framework of the tower fills the viewfinder, and snap the shutter button.

Cashing In Your Autumn Rewards

Trimming the camera upward and snapping the photo instantly completes the challenge. The game will hand over a neat bundle of progression loot on the spot:

Reward TypeItem UnlockedPurpose / Use Case
Forza Link Phrase“Oooh…Shiny!”Taunt or communicate with other players in multiplayer lobbies.
Playlist Progression2 Seasonal PointsFeeds into the weekly reward pool for exclusive prize cars.
Journal Progression100 Discover Japan PointsIncreases your overall Stamp tier to reveal map secrets.

Those two seasonal points are incredibly vital if you are saving up for the 15-point 1997 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec or the 30-point 1991 Honda CR-X SiR. Missing out on seasonal playlist cars means you will be forced to hunt them down via the costly secondary market later on.

Furthermore, if this is your first time capturing the historic landmark, the 100 Discover Japan Points will instantly boost your campaign journal. Accumulating these stamps is the exact mechanism required to unlock hidden Barn Find rumors and buy high-end player houses with permanent economic perks.

Do not procrastinate on this urban photo op. The Autumn playlist operates on a strict server timer. The entire reward track will vanish permanently when the Winter snow rolls into Japan on Thursday, June 4, at 7:30 AM Pacific Time (10:30 AM Eastern Time). Get your car down to the city center and capture the shot before the weather changes.
