What other travelers are saying about Osu Shopping District

Sheltered shopping street with various shops and food stalls. There were departmental stores, shops for clothing and shoes, souvenirs and even trading card stores. Do note that it can be very crowded on the weekends. Visited in November 2024.

Multiple streets of food and shopping. A vast variety of shops along here and there's a temple in the middle. And more importantly, a Don Quijote outlet. There's even a shop dedicated to just gachapons.

I’ve been wondering where everyone was in Nagoya… it’s here! It was a fun covered shopping street filled with cafes, food stalls, and shops galore. There’s also lots of different bars and drinking spots. This fishball / Takayuki(?) place was great!

What a place this is. Pack a couple of hours just to walk through the covered shopping streets. You'll find all sorts of delicious restaurants, snacks, cheap clothes and knick knacks here. There's also a couple of large gaming centers, some interior temples and shrines. The Taiyaki at Gin-no am is a favourite, and Inpal serves up some delicious naan. Even when things are half closed it's a delightful way to take an evening walk.

Such a big place to shop! One can easily get lost inside. And, as I busily checked out the stores, I forgot to take more photos.
