What other travelers are saying about Tsutenkaku Tower, Osaka
We got the Osaka Amazing Pass and we availed of the Tower Slider, Tower Walk and Dive and of the course the observatory. It was an experience especially the walk and dive and highly recommended if you are not afraid of heights. There also a mini museum at the middle part of the tower and lots of merch and souvenir items.
My wife and I didn't plan to visit, but we were so overwhelmed when we passed by. The tickets were affordable, and we didn't have to wait long before entering. Each deck offered unique exhibits that inspired awe. I captured so many photos, showcasing both the stunning views and the remarkable exhibits. A must-visit destination!
On the third day of my Japan trip, I visited this observatory tower located in the heart of a food district at night. It was such a cool experience! The observatory deck was beautifully decorated with some really unique and creative decorations.
If you’re looking for a more elevated experience, you can pay a little extra to go higher up and step out onto a bridge that stretches out from the tower. At the end of the bridge, there’s a glass floor, which makes for an amazing spot to take pictures and enjoy the view. The higher area is open to the air, so you can really feel the night breeze and soak in the stunning cityscape.
Overall, it’s a great place to get an elevated view of the city and enjoy the atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a scenic and fun spot to take pictures!
Only reason I gave 5 stars was their slide ride. It was part of the "Amazing Osaka" pass.
There is a separate line for the observation deck and the slide.
If you went Umeda Sky Osaka, don't bother. However, there were lots of shops and food spots near by if you want to check out the area. Not worth going just for the tower.
Try to go early close to opening. We went around 10:30am then waited 20 for the tower then 30 for the slide. When we were leaving around 12 or 12:30pm, lineup was much longer may be to outside.
The tower is beautiful at night! We didn’t do the view but we did do the slide!
So much fun! Highly recommend having a go only 1000yen for adults and 500yen for kids. We laughed and screamed! You even get a free video at the end.
