Umeda Sky Building
Osaka’s twin towers and their floating observatory.
Umeda Sky Building is a high-rise complex located in Osaka’s northern district in Kansai, Japan. Two towers constitute the building and are connected by an open-air observation platform, giving a 360° view on the city.
When looking for the must-sees of Osaka , make sure to visit Shin- Umeda district in the north of the city, and especially its most interesting feature: Umeda Sky Building which was designed by architect Hiroshi Hara and achieved in March 1993.
This huge construction, with a characteristic appearance, displays two 40-story twin towers culminating at 173 meters high and connected by a beautiful circular observatory at their upper floor. It was this feature that earned Umeda Sky Building its place in the world’s 20 best buildings ranking by the famous British Times Magazine.
First, have a break in the Floating Garden Observatory from where you can admire the city behind huge windows. It is also possible to enjoy a snack in a very cozy lounge, particularly suitable for and loved by young couples. The place is quite busy on the daytime, and especially on the weekends and holidays .
Going up some stairs, you find yourself out on the stunning Lumi Sky Walk which describes a phosphorescent milky way to the ground. The 360-degree aerial views of Osaka are absolutely wonderful, especially at night , in a place that is without a doubt one of the best observation desks of Kansai ’s majestic city, and a lot quieter.
For all theses reasons, Umeda Sky Building is very popular with couples for wedding proposals at its summit!
For its 25th anniversary, the observatory was refurbished and reopened on 2018, June 27. Its attendance peak was reached in 2017 with 1,5 million visitors, of which 75% were foreigners.

● Futuristic Arc de Triomphe of Osaka
Hi! I’m Cedric. I’d like to show you the coolest building in Osaka, Umeda Sky Building ! At 173 meters tall, the 40-story Umeda Sky Building is a landmark and a popular destination in Umeda. Just check your guidebook or favorite travel sites and you’ll find all sorts of praise about this building!
I got to Umeda Station around 3pm. The Umeda Sky Building stood tall in the north, walking towards JR Osaka Station. You just can’t miss the stunning presence.
Getting to the Umeda Sky Building is easy—the fastest route is to take the underpass west. The underpass was only 200 meter long and when I came out of it, I was already almost there.
The reflection of the sky on the building was beautiful. The Floating Garden Observatory “floats” in mid-air, connecting the two towers high above. This observatory at the top shapes the building like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, the reason why it’s called the “futuristic Arc de Triomphe.”
What an amazing view from below. It’s a bit like sci-fi anime I’ve seen somewhere… I see why this was the only building in Japan that made the top 20 buildings around the world selected by a renowned British publisher.
● Not An Ordinary Elevator or Escalator
Let’s go to the Floating Garden Observatory! The entrance to the observatory is on the first floor of Tower West and is marked “FUN FUN PLAZA” above the doors.
It was a quick elevator ride to the third floor where I walked over to the high-speed elevators that took me to the observatory, which by the way is called Kuchu Teien in Japanese. I was getting excited!
The made-in Japan elevator was non-stop all the way to the 35th floor. It was lightning fast. I was at 130 meters above ground in a zip!
Then I took the escalator that went up a see-through tunnel. I’d seen it on Instagram and other social media sites and was really looking forward to taking this ride. The two passages that reached into the circular observatory when I looked up at the building from the ground were these elevators. The views of the city from the escalator heading to the entrance of the observatory on the 39th floor were awesome.
This is where you purchase the tickets for the observatory. The multilingual option (English, Chinese, and Korean) was helpful.
If you’re buying a ticket here, it also means you don’t need a ticket until you get up here to the 39th floor…which means you can come up here anytime and enjoy the fabulous views of Osaka for free anytime! Grab couple of those beers from around the world and you can make it a trip around the world! Lol
● A Panoramic View at Floating Garden Observatory
Another escalator ride takes you to the observatory on the 40th floor. The 360-degree panoramic view of Osaka is incredible. It’s definitely worth paying for♪ I’m going to call this a “sky walk” around that hole I saw from below earlier. The best of all—and the best in Osaka—this observatory is open air! I felt the celestial wind at 173 meters above ground.
Too bad it was cloudy. I hear you can see as far as Mt. Rokko in Kobe and Awaji Island in the Seto Inland Sea on a sunny day. The south side of the building is the Umeda area—so urban, filled with buildings after buildings. And it continues to evolve every day.
On the west is Osaka Bay and Kobe. I saw a shinkansen bullet train! It went by so fast. See the airplane, too?
● A “Power Spot” for Love?!
This observatory is a famous “power spot” for love. What is a “power spot,” you ask? Power spots are spiritual places where you can connect with the nature and/or the surroundings and get recharged. You can find so-called “power spots” all over Japan. I saw lots of girls visiting the observatory putting their wishes on the heart-shaped padlocks called “heart lock.” I hope their wishes will come true!
I think I’ll come back after dark next time and enjoy the wonderful views at night. I bet the Sky Building would look more space-like in the dark and the views would be extraordinary! The observatory is open until 10pm, but the reviews I saw online say it’s best at sunset when you can watch the sun go down and wait for the darkness to envelop the city. How romantic. The Umeda Sky Building website conveniently lists the sunset time daily for those of us romantists.
● Going Underground for A Dessert
After floating in the observatory at the top, I went all the way underground to the basement floor 1 of the Sky Building. I had a reason—I wanted to check out Takimi Koji Retro Restaurant Alley. This floor is a recreation of 1920’s Japan and I like historic townscapes of Japan.
The shop I wanted to visit was Bashoan. This confectionery studio is famous for its authentic warabimochi, a traditional mochi dessert made with warabi bracken starch. Here it is!
Interior of the shop has a historic touch. And I was greeted with a large stone mill. I’d never seen a stone mill before but, at Bashoan, diners can use this stone mill to make their own kinako powder for the warabimochi. How fun is that? I tried it while I waited for my warabimochi and iced green milk tea. I put black beans in the 1 cm hole on top of the stone mill and turned the handle. I heard some grating sounds, so I suppose I was doing okay… Soon, I smelled the nice aroma of kinako and saw the kinako powder coming out at the bottom.
My warabimochi was served as a whole block—it looked authentic alright! I cut the warabimochi into bite size pieces and topped them with the kinako I ground. My warabimochi bite was creamy yet had texture, and was sophisticated and delicate, a very Japanese flavor. It was delicious!
You can choose your toppings from the choices of syrup, matcha green tea power, and sweet azuki beans, and enjoy different flavors. I gave it A+!
Umeda Sky Building is packed with more attractions including a movie theater, a museum, a hotel, and Chu-Shizen Forest where you can see the fireflies glow. This building is like a city in itself and offers a whole day of fun. It definitely met all the expectations I had. I know you are itching to go. Do you want to go with me?!

Osaka Umeda 1-Day Itinerary: Guide to All the Shopping and Food You Could Want! (With Bonus Deals)
Osaka’s Umeda district is the perfect place for venturing out into West Japan's best area for tourism, the Kansai region. In particular, its high-class urban cityscape lends a sophisticated feeling that travelers will appreciate. With plenty of popular shopping spots and memorable, tantalizing cuisine for visitors to Japan to enjoy, it's a perfect travel destination even by itself. The ever-talkative Osakans are very neighborly to travelers, too. Friendly shop staff will be there to help you get around and form happy memories of your trip. Here, we'll share a one-day plan for enjoying all the shopping and cuisine the Umeda-Osaka area has to offer. Enjoy your stay in Umeda to its fullest!
Traveling to Osaka? Go to Umeda!
For shopping and food, umeda's grand, one-day plan out in the umeda area, 1. get all your shopping in at grand front osaka, ■the biggest mujirushi ryohin in osaka (north building 4f), ■kaneko optical( south building 2f), inheriting japan's tradition of craftsmanship, 2. treat yourself to a luxurious "herbis" lunch, ■ enrich your palate with kobe beef at "sukiyaki shabushabu kobe beef ishida" (herbis plaza b2), 3. shopping and a cafe-stop at "hankyu sanban gai", ■ lose yourself in a kaleidoscope of popular character products at "kiddy land" (north area, ■sit back and relax with a fluffy pancake at "burn side st cafe", 4. the fun continues into the night at "hep five", ■jump into the virtual world at "vr zone osaka" (8-9f), ■ see the nighttime cityscape from umeda's symbol, the ferris wheel, a fulfilling umeda-osaka trip from morning to night, use these coupons at six malls.
In recent years, Osaka has been gathering popularity as a destination for tourists traveling to Japan. The rise began around 2011, and now tourists are a common sight in the area. Osaka's fame comes mostly from its convenient position between famous sightseeing locations in the Kansai region, like Kyoto, Nara, and Kobe. For instance, it's only about 43 minutes to get to the heart of Kyoto at Kyoto-Kawaramachi Station, via the express train from Hankyu Osaka-Umeda Station. This makes Osaka your perfect sightseeing base. That's not to say there aren't plenty of exceptional destinations within the city of Osaka. Osaka has two distinct areas: Umeda centered on Osaka-Umeda Station, and Namba centered on Namba Station. These two areas will check all the boxes you need to get the most out of Osaka and have a satisfying trip.
Even in Kansai, Umeda is an excellent place to enjoy shopping or fine food. You'll find many malls in the area around Osaka-Umeda Station with everything from thrifty stores to extravagant select shops and high-end brand outlets, convenient for any visitor. These malls also feature cuisine, like the Osaka classics okonomiyaki and takoyaki. In fact, Umeda has famous restaurants from around all of Japan. A walk around most any building can take you on a shopping/culinary adventure. That is to say, walking around Umeda area buildings make for a most efficient trip.
Now for that one-day shopping/cuisine plan in Umeda. Let's simulate the perfect one-day trip that includes shopping at the wildly popular MUJI, the melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness of Kobe beef sukiyaki, and a view of the Osaka nightscape.
GRAND FRONT OSAKA is a mall that encapsulates the Osaka experience. The massive complex contains shops for fashion, variety goods, tableware, interior decoration, and more. Below the first floor is a wide variety of dining options. You could find everything you'd ever want to bring home from Japan right here.
You'll find Mujirushi Ryohin all around Japan, but the Umeda MUJI may very well be the biggest MUJI in Osaka-- nay, Kansai! You'll find the entire MUJI catalog of fashion, cosmetics, stationery, lifestyle items, and more, plus selected literature, and a cafe great for having lunch and relaxing. Like a well-unified mall, you can enjoy shopping and dining here.
All of Mujirushi Ryohin's most popular products can be found here, so you might be able to find things here that are sold out at other Mujirushi Ryohin locations. Their stock is extensive as well, so you could make purchases in bulk if you feel the need. They also feature products you won't find at other locations, like limited-edition products made with new materials. There is also a workshop for embroidering names or images on classic products.
This optical shop got its start in 1958 over in Sabae, Fukui Prefecture. Their craftsmen use traditional techniques to form sturdy frames in trendy designs, creating a lineup of long-lasting made-in-Japan eyewear. The personal touch one can feel from their products has earned them fans in and outside of Japan. They're frequented by visitors to Japan.
You might get the impression KANEKO OPTICAL's forte is classical frames, but they have a wide selection of trendy eyewear, so you're sure to find something you'll like. They can match lenses to the glasses you're currently wearing or measure your eyesight on the spot. The price of the lens changes based on their type, but begin at 15,400 yen (including tax) for a two-lens set. Each order can take one week to 10 days to finish, but they can mail the finished product to locations outside of Japan.

HERBIS, including "HERBIS PLAZA" and "HERBIS PLAZA ENT," is a commercial facility in Umeda, Osaka. You'll find flagship shops for luxury brands and popular select shops originated in Japan in a fun, urban environment. The B2 floor of HERBIS PLAZA is for restaurants, featuring attractive bars, cafes, and restaurants for Japanese cuisine, desserts, and more.
Kobe beef is a world-renowned Japanese brand. A great many people around the world, and even in Japan, merely hope to taste it someday. At "SUKIYAKI SHABUSHABU KOBE BEEF ISHIDA," you can eat that very same Kobe beef in shabu-shabu or sukiyaki form. The restaurant exudes high-class Japanese style; you'd be hard-pressed to find a better place to enjoy the flavors of Kobe beef.
At SUKIYAKI SHABUSHABU KOBE BEEF ISHIDA, you can take your pick between Kobe beef and Ozaki beef. Kobe beef is defined by its spectacularly rich flavor and soft texture, while Ozaki beef has a lighter flavor with the right balance of red meat and fat. The sukiyaki course brings you sukiyaki with a parade of appetizers, tempura, and dessert. While technically a dinner course, you can also order it at lunchtime. Their lunch menu has items starting at 1,870 yen (with tax).
The sukiyaki is prepared right in front of you and brought to the perfect temperature before serving. It's served with a choice of rich-tasting whipped egg or grated yam. The soft and full-flavored beef mixes with the egg or grated yam to bring bliss to your mouth. Enjoy it in all its melt-in-your-mouth splendor.

After relishing in Kobe beef at HERBIS, it's time to get back to shopping. "HANKYU SANBAN GAI" is a mall directly connected to Hankyu Osaka-Umeda Station. Here you'll find stores for fashion and an assortment of other goods which are visited by both tourists and locals alike.
At KIDDY LAND, you can purchase products relating to around 150 cute characters. Characters from Studio Ghibli movies? Check. The laid-back and charming Rilakkuma? Present. Then there are Snoopy, Miffy, and... in any case, famous characters from around the world. The characters' amusing expressions will bring a smile to any face! It's no wonder the store is popular with both kids and women in their 20s and 30s.
There's a photo spot in the store that would make for a good Osaka vacation memory. You'll see a lot of these "gacha" machines, which dispense capsule toys when you put in a coin and pull the lever. They're a hallmark of Japanese shopping complexes.
HANKYU SANBAN GAI's North Area B2F is their UMEDA FOOD HALL, a food court with around 1000 seats in its shared seating area and 18 establishments whose food you can try at your leisure. For this simulation, let's have a fluffy pancake from the popular BURN SIDE ST CAFE.
They use egg whites and soymilk to create their famous snowy-white fluffy pancake. Top it with your choice of honey or maple syrup. The pancake also comes with maple nut butter and whipped cream. Enjoy the gentle flavor of soymilk in a satisfyingly large serving! As a relatively healthier treat, their white souffle pancake is favored by fans of Japanese cuisine, too.

Our trip has become a night out, and we'll make the most of it at "HEP FIVE"! HEP FIVE is a commercial complex with stores featuring fashion and various other goods aimed at younger crowds. Never a dull moment at HEP FIVE: it's great for shopping, but there are plenty of entertainment facilities.
At VR ZONE OSAKA, you can put on a VR headset and explore everything the virtual world has to offer. Experience white-water rapids or flights in the sky as if you are truly there. Some of the attractions are themed on popular IPs like Evangelion, so we particularly recommend it to fans of anime.
Some of the 16 attractions like "VR Adventure Rapid River" and "Hanechari (Winged Bicycle)" have English settings. Their "Free Pass" allows you to play certain activities an unlimited number of times. Weekday prices: 2,900 yen for kids, 3,200 yen for students, 3,500 yen for adults. Weekday and holiday prices: 3,800 yen for kids, 4,100 yen for students, 4,400 yen for adults. Prices after 6:00 PM for all days: 2,000 yen for kids, 2,300 yen for students, 2,600 yen for adults.

For a final touch on our Osakan night, we'll head up on the red Ferris wheel, which has become an Umeda landmark since its HEP FIVE first opened. From up high, you're treated to a light show only possible in the big city. The Ferris wheel cars are air-conditioned and kept at a comfortable temperature in both summer and winter! One trip around is only 15 minutes. And it's only 600 yen (including tax) per person. Free for children five and under!

You're free to take in the city sights while dining on gourmet cuisine, get the most out of your yen shopping around and dining. It's also a breeze to get to Kyoto, Nara, or Kobe from Umeda.
