Route

  1. 1

    America Mura

    More Information →

    America Mura is a trendy shopping and fashion area just west of Shinsaibashi that has been a mecca for the youth of Osaka since the 80s. The name "America Mura" (literally "America Town") is derived from when people started to sell imported American goods such as vintage clothes and records. It has since become a place for the youth of Osaka to get together and express their unique fashion senses and art etc, with several bars and cafes also popular within the area.

  2. 2

    Dotonbori Street

    More Information →

    Dotonbori Street is a popular shopping area in Osaka known for its bustling atmosphere and its many neon lights at night, including the famous Glico man, a symbol of Osaka. The Dotonbori arcade is perfect for shopping, dining and entertainment. It's not that you can't find the things here anywhere else, it's just that you can't find them condensed in such a lively and packed space anywhere else. It's certainly a distinctively Osaka experience you shouldn't miss out on, unless you really hate crowds.
