★ 4.9 (13K+ reviews) • 428K+ booked
Located in Osaka, Tsutenkaku Tower is not only the city's symbol but is also a registered national cultural property. On the golden observation platform, you can take in the lively cityscape of Osaka, and don't forget to meet the famous "Billiken" statue, known for bringing good fortune to those who touch the soles of its feet. Surrounding Tsutenkaku Tower is the charming Shinsekai district, a nostalgic area with retro signboards and a vibrant history. The 100-meter steel tower itself may not be the tallest, but the tall building is a historic landmark inspired by the Eiffel Tower, which symbolizes the progress and innovation in Osaka.

It's a good savings for those who love collecting tourist attractions and are good at getting lost. Don't be afraid of wasting money. You can get lost as much as you want. We planned for 3 days.

Convenient and easy to use, suitable for multiple rides. Moreover, the three days can be non-consecutive, and the itinerary can be adjusted flexibly. Group admission is also available at some museums.

A very useful ticket, you must buy it when traveling in Kansai! This is a good tool if you don’t want to pay attention all the time when riding the electric train. Except for Jr., you can ride on all others, which is very convenient.
