What other travelers are saying about Tsutenkaku Tower, Osaka
Visited there on a weekday, it was extremely quiet, still a short queue to slowly go up, city lights was pretty nice! There was a area for you to take photo as well! Love it!!
An iconic tower that anyone will instantly identify Osaka with. Looks better at night lit up than it does during the daytime. It's worth coming to visit the area at both day and night though as it has a slightly different vibe.
The surrounding Shinsekai area is great to explore too with lots of old charm in many of the streets and stores.
It’s Sunday after lunch and the line up to get up to the observation deck is quite long. If you want to go up the tower suggest to come early in weekday. Quite a bit of restaurants and entertainment shops nearby for all ages. The most popular type seems to be shooting targets for prize.
Definitely enjoyed catching my own fish which was prepared as we liked! Fun for families and groups. Excellent team-building activity! Enjoyed how helpful and fun-loving the staff were. A true must-do for Osaka visitors!
A fair bit of wait to get the tickets on spot and to take the lift up to the tower top. There are two different queues and entrances. One is for the tower slide ride and one is to the tower top. Must queue correctly else you need to re-join the queue. The view is stunning from the top, especially the outdoor observation deck. Worth visiting in the evening when the sun sets to catch the night scenery.
