Tourist Information NAMBA

Reviewed By Michael_dlr - Manila, Philippines

Especially if its your first time, commuting around Osaka can be really stressful and confusing so make sure to visit this place before riding the next train to your intended destination. They'll provide you with maps, refer you to the correct ticket offices, tell you if you're on the correct line, etc.

Hozenji Yokocho

Harkening back to the quieter, more intimate Osaka of the 19th century, small food shops and historic souvenir purveyors lie under paper lanterns on each side of the narrow, stone-paved lane.

Wander around the alleys in this area- you'll feel like you've walked into the past and you'll find some gems. Along the covered walkway there are alleys leading off. The lead into small pockets of old Japan with shrines, temples and quaint little restaurants

Takashimaya Osaka Store

The Namba area is Osaka's central hub for shopping, restaurants and leisure, and is exciting at any time of the day or night. The Takashimaya department store has stood proudly as a symbol of this bustling area for more than a century, offering the top quality brands and excellent customer service for which Japan is famous. Takashimaya welcomes international visitors, combining traditional Kansai regional hospitality with special services to enhance your shopping experience.

Visited Takashimaya in Osaka in November 2019. Along with Mitsukoshi, Takashimaya is known as the very high end department store in Japan. Went to the restaurant floors and dined at Tsuruya Japanese restaurant. They served Kaiseki type Japonessa food and it was great! Many other good restaurants to choose from.

Kamigata Ukiyoe Museum

This museum showcases Osakan woodblocks from the Edo period, distinct from those in Tokyo due to their realistic expression of their subjects. Many feature famous Kabuki actors of the period.

Highly recommended cheap option for culture in Namba. 500 yen to go, and ignore the previous reviews - they suggested we took photos - just without flash. I wish I'd known about the opportunity to print my own!

From Nippombashi, you just need to take this Kintentsu train to Nara. No need to transfer. It takes about 55 minutes.
