Incredibleeeeee view, and I went around 9:30pm so there was a perfect amount of crowds! That just made it a special and enjoyable end to the day! The 360° view was just amazing! I took my time up there because there wasn’t too much of a crowd and it was honestly sooooo calming to be that high up at night in the night breeze!
Superb experience. The escalator to the sky garden was jaw dropping from 40 storey high up. The view at the sky garden was unforgettable especially during sunset when u see towards the Osaka Port direction. It's just so serene and memorising. It's a must visit in Osaka!
super fast confirmation.. the price more more cheaper than the ticket counter.. safe more money.. super recomended
Tricky to find due to roadworks diversions but what an amazing building and view from the viewing deck
Great visita thanks to pelago. Wonderful view from the top
