  • The Unity Tower (officially the Tower of East Asian Unity) is a Monument in Seogyeong, East Asian Federation. The tower memorializes the East Asian Unity Treaty, signed in 1976, forming the Federation between the Republic of Korea and the State of Japan. Completed in 2001, it is situated on the eastern bank of the Taedong River, directly across from Gyoyug Square and the Central Library of the East Asian Federation, which are located opposite across the river. It was built to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Federation's founding. The 250 meter (820 ft) structure is a 225 meter (738 ft) four-sided tapering spire capped with a 20 meter (66 ft) octahedron figure. It is possible to ascend the tower, with an observation deck located in the tower's cap. It is the tallest monumental column in the world, followed by the San Jacinto Monument in the Houston suburbs, Allied States of America. At the foot of the tower is a 30 meter (98 ft) tall statue of the leaders of the two countries at the time, Park Chung-hee and Takeo Miki, shaking hands in a gesture of friendship. Close to the tower is a wall of friendship plaques symbolizing various foreign trade agreements and Sister City agreements with Seogyeong. Landscaping around the tower includes pavilions and fountains. The tower and its environs is a popular meeting place for city residents and tourists alike. At night, the tower's cap is accented by uplighting, making it a prominent sight on the city skyline along the river. View of the tower, however, is obscured from far away, blocked by taller skyscrapers in the city.
