What other travelers are saying about Tempozan Ferris Wheel
Located right next to the Osaka Aquarium, this is a very cool experience if you have the time to spare and aren't too afraid of heights. The ride itself is about 15 minutes long and gives you a phenomenal view of the port, the Tempozan Bridge, and Osaka skyline. At night, the wheel is lighted and simply magnificent. Recommended!
Me and my friend visited this huge Ferris wheel close to midnight, just before its closing time. There was no crowd, which was nice! The ride itself was super clean and spacious, and the glass floor added a cool touch since it’s see-through, giving you an exciting view of the ground below. The whole ride took around 10-15 minutes (I couldn’t quite remember), but it felt like a good amount of time to take in the views.
The prices were affordable and very reasonable, making it a great option for a fun night activity. It’s located near the sea, so you get an incredible sea view and the stunning Osaka skyline as you go up. If you’re looking for Instagram-worthy spots, this place is perfect for capturing photos with the skyline and the Ferris wheel at night. Definitely a great experience and a must-do if you’re in Osaka!
Some really phenomenal views of Osaka. There was no wait for the standard line. I didn't feel like I was missing much from the see through capsule. This was a perfect night time activity for anyone who doesn't care for bars. The price was inexpensive for 1 or 2 people. Might be steep for a family. Kids do ride free at the time of writing this but not sure what the cut off age is.
It was really worth it! The attraction is just a short walk from the Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan. The variety of payment options available was also very convenient. My friend and I decided to visit on a whim and ended up having an amazing experience!
The Ferris Wheel is a remarkable attraction offering great views of Osaka and its bay. Each cabin accommodates up to six people and is equipped with air conditioning, making it comfortable and pleasant for families with kids. We also, didn’t experience much waiting time. The ticket price at the counter is 900 yen, which I find to be the only questionable aspect, as it’s not particularly budget-friendly for families (2 adults, 3 kids for us !). It might be best to look for online discounts if available. The ride itself takes about 15 minutes.
