Activity itinerary

Osaka Station City
  • 30m
Osaka Kita is one of the 24 districts of Osaka. He is especially marked by the locals in his rivalry with Osaka Minami, and has been for a long time. Today, it has become a business district with many shops and restaurants, especially around Umeda, its most emblematic district. Osaka’s aptly named railway station is located in the centre of Osaka, in the middle of seven other stations. These stations handle more than 2.5 million passengers a day.
Umeda Sky Building
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Umeda Sky Building has a bold architecture. It is 173 metres tall and consists of two 40-storey towers connected at their summits by an atrium with a 360-degree observatory. Over the years it has become one of Osaka’s flagship buildings and tourists flock to it. We go there and have a good view from Kobe to Osaka.
Tsuyuno Tenjinsya (Ohatsu Tenjin)
  • 1h
The Tsurunoten Shrine, also called Ohatsu Tenjin, is one of the most visited shrines in Osaka and a fortiori Kita, especially Umeda of which it is a protective shrine. It has more than 1300 years of history and it mainly celebrates Sugawara no Michizane, personality of the ninth century deified under the name of Tenjin, divinity of studies and knowledge. The shrine is also famous for the unfortunate romance between Ohatsu and Tokubei.
Shinsaibashi
  • 30m
We take the subway from Umeda station to Shinsaibashi station to get to Minami, the bustling shopping district of the city. There will be something for everyone! The shopping street and boulevard, which reminds us of the Champs Elysées, welcome us for window shopping and tourism.
