Legend
There is a legend that if you go to a place where you can see all three buildings at the same time your wish will be granted. The origins of this legend vary with one version being a foreign sailor whose wish came true after looking at the towers. Another version talks about how these three towers are lucky because they withstood the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake.
