Panoramic views of Osaka

Brandy_B, Oct 2025

A fun experience although the lines to get on the elevator were very long despite buying tickets online. It took almost 45 mins to get up to the top. Lovely views of Osaka and nice options for food and drinks on the top too.

Sky Building

Linda_M, May 2025

We enjoyed walking around the Sky Building. The views of the Osaka skyline were amazing from up there.

Osaka at Dusk

NORIHIKO_N, Nov 2025

It was very crowded with international tourists, but I managed to enjoy the view of the evening on the elevator ride course instead of the see-through escalator. It was a bit cloudy, but the view of the city, sea and river in Osaka was very good.
