Skip the lines at the popular, entertaining Abeno Harukas building in Osaka. This ticket allows you access to the 58th floor Brighter Sky 300 observation deck, for sweeping views of Osaka city from 984 feet (300 meters) in the air. While you’re there, you can choose to enjoy a meal at the Sky Garden 300 restaurant, or shop for designer brands at the Abeno Harukas shopping mall (with on-the-spot tax refunds!).

Spend the day with one of our hosts to discover the true nature of Osaka - head’s up, it’s got a wild sense of humor and is obsessed with food. Explorer (not tourist) is what we’re aiming for here, and in that spirit, you could explore neighborhoods.

Both Japanese and foreign tourists like to collect goshuins at temples and shrines. So, I will help you to take 4 - 7 goshuins during this tour. First of all, we visit Harukas Garden of Abeno Harukas. It's located on the 16th floor of Abeno Harukas without entrance fee. Please check the pictures of Harukas Garden. Next, we visit Horikoshi Shrine and Shitennoji Temple which were established by Prince Shotoku in 593. At Shitennoji you can walk up to the top of 5-story pagoda.
