Umeda Sky Building

There are lots of department stores and towering skyscrapers around the station. It is a place where many companies, banks, and restaurants gather together. Corresponding to the "South" with Namba and Shinsaibashi as the center, Umeda is called the "North", which is a very prosperous large-scale commercial district, with continuous flow of people all day.

In Umeda Underground Street, which is a large-scale underground street in Japan, there are rows of cafes, restaurants, and shops selling foreign goods, groceries, and food. The colorful tiled floors and the "Spring Plaza" with beautiful fountains have become a good place for people to relax. In addition, there are facilities such as TOHO Cinema, Four Seasons Theater, etc, where you can choose to watch a Japanese movie or a performance.

Climb to the Umeda Sky Building near Osaka Station, and enjoy the view of Osaka city from the 40-story Sky Garden Observatory. Especially when night falls, you can overlook the lights of thousands of houses under your feet, which is very beautiful. When you enter the indoor observation floor, you can choose to sit on the chairs waiting for visitors and have a nap, facing the beautiful scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, without having to endure the embarrassment of outdoor or wind or rain. There is also a lover deck on this floor, but it is very popular.

When the weather is good, don’t miss the dynamic night view of Osaka from the 173-meter-high sky courtyard observation deck. When it is clear and cloudless, the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge can be seen in the distance. Walking around the platform, outside the building is the bustling scene of Kita-Osaka, and the feet are also shining. The original ground is inlaid with many fluorescent materials. Under the irradiation of ultraviolet light, it reflects the colorful brilliance, winding like a milky way. In general, there is an illusion of flying into the universe in the darkness.

The eye-catching HepFive Ferris wheel is painted red, which is another symbolic attraction in Umeda. Many couples like to ride the Ferris wheel and enjoy 15 minutes of romance in the sky.
