The 40-story, twin super high-rise was completed in 1993. The two towers are connected on top. In England, it was selected into the “Top 20” list of world buildings as a thrilling skyscraper. The beauty of the building itself is part of its popularity. On the 3rd floor, there is a gate for the elevators to shoot you up to the 35th floor. From there, an escalator will carry you slowly to the 39 floors through a skeleton tunnel.

On the 39th floor, UMEDA SKYBLDG GALLERY SHOP has herbarium pens, craft kits, Umeda Sky Building figures created by Kaiyodo and other original goods. There is Sky Lounge, Stardust, which offers 300 kinds of cocktails and creative Italian dishes, and Chinese Restaurant Sangu that serves genuine Kanton dishes centered around seafood from a la carte to full course.

The 40th floor is an observatory. At the cafe SKY 40, you can enjoy Umeda Sky Building’s original coffee, Umeda Sky Bil Waffle in the Sky Building shape, the World Beer Selection, and other food and drinks.

The roof is Kuchu Teien Observatory 173m (568 ft) above the ground. You have a sweeping view of Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, Awaji Island, Mt. Rokko, Tempozan Ferris Wheel and the forest of skyscrapers in Umeda. Within the building, there are movie theaters and Takimi Koji that recreated a retro alley. On the premises, there are refreshing walking paths such as Chu-Shizen-no-mori and Hanano-Shin-Satoyama.

    我們先到搭電梯直上這40樓展望台,從40樓往下看,真的很美,之後搭電梯下到39F 有很多紀念品可以買,和有咖啡廳可以喝喝休息,來這有不虛此行感覺!

    光在搭電梯的過程中景色就很棒了。

  • 林智才

    兩道手扶梯直達景觀樓層很有設計感,乘坐時也很刺激。

  • Sandy Kou

    是梅田地區最具指標性的建築,景觀台俯瞰繁華的大阪夜景,樓下美食街有各式樣的日本料理,夜晚不會感到寂寞。
