Don Quijote Dotonbori Store
Known for its late-night hours, quirky shelf displays, and handwritten promotional signs, Don Quijote is a beloved all-in-one discount store. The Dotonbori branch is especially eye-catching thanks to its iconic yellow Ferris wheel attached to the building’s façade-now a well-known landmark along the Dotonbori River in Osaka’s Minami district.
They have everything—beauty products, snacks, medicine, toys, clothes. So many choices!
TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY
Japan's largest station-centered urban development project, led by JR East, opened in spring 2026 in front of Takanawa Gateway Station in Minato City, Tokyo.
The layout is really well planned, so it's not easy to get lost. Walking around never feels chaotic.
Osaka Ikuno KoreaTown (Miyuki-dori Shopping Street)
Osaka Ikuno Korea Town refers to the “Miyuki-dori Shopping Street, Miyuki-dori Central Shopping Street, and Miyuki-dori East Shopping Street”. The area is the home of Miyukimori Tenjingu Shrine, which has a history of 1,600 years. It is a shopping street with about 120 stores lined up along a 500-meter stretch from east to west.
It's not as lively as I expected. I bought a bubble tea and it tasted really bad!
Tsutenkaku Tower
A steel tower which looks like the Eiffel Tower and 75 meters high was built In 1912, on top of a building which was the motif of the Arc de Triomphe, and named “Tsutenkaku” meaning “A building reaching the heaven'' by Nangaku Fujisawa, a Confucian in the early Meiji period. After being broken down due to a fire, citizens lobbied for rebuilding and the current 2nd Tsutenkaku was built in 1956.
They didn't tell us that the Osaka Amazing Pass only lets you in after 6 p.m. at night. Plus, the place felt a bit messy and disorganized.
