Top 10 Monuments & Statues in Osaka, Kinki

May 21, 2021 Jasper Kershner

Home to nearly nine million and powering an economy that exceeds both Hong Kong's and Thailand's, Osaka packs quite a punch. The confident, stylish city is a shopping hub, with fabulous restaurants and nightlife. It's an ideal base for exploring the Kansai region; Kyoto's World Heritage Sites, Nara's temple and Koya-san's eerie graves are within 90 minutes by train. Top city attractions include the aquarium, Osaka Castle, Universal Studios Japan and the futuristic Floating Garden Observatory.

Whenever I come to Osaka, I like to see what outfit Kitanosaurusさん is decorated with. He's off in a less crowded part of the station, but I always make time to visit!
