360-Degree View of Osaka via Harukas 300 Observatory
When in Osaka, one of the landmarks that you shouldn’t miss is the Abeno Harukas. At 300m, it holds the title of the tallest skyscraper in Japan. It houses the main store of Kintetsu Department Store on B2-14/F, an art museum on the 16/F, the Osaka Marriott Miyako Hotel, and the must-visit Harukas 300 Observatory on the 58th to the 60th floor. Harukas is actually an old Japanese expression that means “to brighten or illuminate”, and you’ll get to experience this in the observatory, when you see the clear and vibrant view of the surroundings.
It will be the first building in Osaka to be bathed each morning in the light of the rising sun, the very embodiment of new beginnings.
Abeno Harukas Development Vision
Here’s what’s in store for you when you get a Harukas 300 observatory ticket:
1. Panoramic view of the city
While not all skyscrapers and observatories satisfy, the one in Abeno Harukas surely does! The experience starts when you take the lift from the 16th floor, which will take you up to the 60th floor in just 50 seconds. When you arrive, you’ll pretty much feel like you’re up in the clouds! To add more excitement to your visit, make sure to check out the open-air Wood Deck on the 58th floor! (And, yes, the view from the restrooms is also captivating!)
2. Certified Lover’s Sanctuary
If you’ll visit Harukas 300 with your date, you will like your experience here, especially if you come in the evening. On the 58th floor, there is a photo spot called Harukas Heart, a fixture that symbolizes the bond of love.
3. Dine and drink
On the 58th floor of Harukas 300 observatory, there is a cafe restaurant where you can enjoy a drink or meal. While you will find more dining options at Kintetsu Department Store on the first few levels, only the dining spot on the 58th floor can offer such elegant views of the city.
