Osaka Prefecture's Absolute Essentials

Osaka Prefecture serves as a central hub for history and commerce in Japan's Kansai region. This selection features the 16th-century Osaka Castle and Shitennoji, one of the nation's oldest Buddhist temples. Modern landmarks include the 300-meter Abeno Harukas skyscraper and the expansive Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan. The list also highlights significant commercial zones like the neon-lit Dotonbori canal, the Kuromon Ichiba food market, and Nipponbashi Denden Town, a district specialized in electronics and anime culture. Entry to the region is anchored by Kansai International Airport, located on an artificial island in Osaka Bay.
