At the moment when the red sunset and night view came into harmony at the same time, I could feel the rhythm of the city called ‘Osaka’ come alive. Thanks to the air conditioning, it was comfortable even in the summer, and since it was a weekday evening, the line disappeared quickly, so I got on without waiting. It was even more emotional when I got on while listening to music—it was truly a ‘emotional walk in the sky’😊” ⸻ ✨ Summary of tips: • 15 minutes / ¥600–800 / 11:00–23:00 / 52 cabins • Sunset and night are the best times • Avoid crowds by riding during the day on weekdays • Perfect as a finishing course after shopping or eating
