A retro neighborhood in Osaka with a worn but charming vibe. Originally designed in the early 20th century as a vision of the future, it’s now a quirky mix of kushikatsu restaurants, pachinko parlors, neon signs, and old-school alleyways. The atmosphere is raw, nostalgic, and unmistakably local, with Tsutenkaku Tower looming in the background.
