- Spot Introduction -

  • Midosuji (View from the bus)

Stretching from Umeda to Namba, this is Osaka's main street with a total length of approximately 4.5 km. It is the busiest area in Osaka city. About 970 ginkgo trees are planted along the street, and in autumn, they turn a stunning, vibrant golden color. During the Osaka Hikari-no-Kyoen 'Midosuji Illumination' event, the trees and buildings on both sides of the road are beautifully lit up, creating a magical atmosphere.

  • Tenjinbashisuji Shopping Street (Drop-off only)

A shopping street with a total length of about 2.6 km. It features approximately 800 shops, including traditional casual diners, delicatessens, and knife shops specializing in swordsmithing. Just walking through it allows you to feel the essence of Osaka.

  • Kawa-no-Eki Hachikenya (Drop-off only)

Once a thriving pier for express boats connecting Kyoto and Osaka during the Edo period, it has been revived as a port where you can enjoy leisurely cruises and serves as a place of relaxation for people.

  • Osaka Castle (View from the bus) 

The symbol of Osaka, built in 1583 by Toyotomi Hideyoshi on the site of the Osaka (Ishiyama) Hongan-ji Temple as he aimed to unify the country. Its history is tumultuous, having lost its main keep twice due to the Siege of Osaka and lightning strikes. The current Osaka Castle main keep was rebuilt in 1931, modeled after the Toyotomi-era keep, thanks to donations from the citizens of Osaka Prefecture.
