Abeno Harukas Observatory

Abeno Harukas Observatory, perched atop Japan's tallest skyscrapers, provides an unforgettable experience with stunning views and unique attractions. Located in Osaka, the observatory occupies the top floors of the 300-meter-high Abeno Harukas building.

The journey begins with a swift elevator ride to the 60th floor, where you're immediately met with floor-to-ceiling windows offering a panoramic view of Osaka. On clear days, the view stretches far beyond the city, reaching Kyoto, Kobe, and even Awaji Island. The scenery is a spectacular blend of urban life and natural beauty, with mountains in the background and the bustling city below.

A standout feature of the observatory is the Sky Garden. This glass-enclosed area gives you the feeling of being outside while providing protection from the elements. You can relax on comfortable benches, sip a drink from the café, and enjoy the 360-degree views in a serene setting.

For those seeking a bit more excitement, the Edge The Harukas experience allows you to walk on the edge of the building, safely harnessed, for a thrilling, unobstructed view straight down. It's a heart-pounding adventure that adds a dose of adrenaline to your visit.

The observatory also includes interactive displays and telescopes that highlight key landmarks, providing educational insights about the city's landscape and history. The combination of high-tech features and breathtaking views makes it an enriching experience for all ages.
