Highlights
The open-air rooftop provides excellent panoramic views of Osaka, though it can get windy, so secure loose items.
The glass elevators and escalators offer 360-degree views as you ascend and descend, adding to the experience.
The upper deck features blacklights that make certain colors, like those in the starscape walking path, glow.

Who it's for
Anyone looking for sweeping city views, especially at sunset or night. It's also a good option for families, as it's considered kid-friendly.
Know before you go
Purchasing tickets in advance is highly recommended to save time, especially if you have time constraints.
No food or drinks are allowed on the upper deck.
If queues are long, staff might suggest a shorter waiting line that bypasses the glass elevator on the way up, but you'll still experience it on the way down.
