About Osaka AmerikamuraDuring the 70s, warehouses in Amerikamura were renovated to sell imported goods including vintage clothes, jeans, second-hand records and many other items from the West Coast of the United States.
Because of the uniqueness of the area, TV and media introduced the place nationwide and “Amemura” (Amerikamura) became a birthplace of the latest fashion trends.
Even now more than 30 years later, Amemura is fun to visit, to look for young people with creative and unique fashion, to observe entertaining buildings and purchase unique goods from a wide variety of stores.Also at night, Amemura is famous for the vibrant night life and entertainment district. Bars and clubs in the district are always crowded with people who work in the area, musicians, designers, and aspiring dancers.
Young people gathered in Amemura in search of creativity” and “human relationships”.
During this decade, pushed by the internet via online information, Amerikamura received recognition quickly and became established as a “town for young people” not only in Osaka but also throughout the Kansai area.
Amemura’s unique fashion attracted so many creative young people, and their willingness to participate in fashion, music, and art communities in Amerikamura led people to recognize the area as an important place to seek human connections and to share their ideas.
Many young people who used to hang out in Amerikamura became shop owners, event organizers, and became involved in doing live music shows.
Still, there are many communities similar to the café “LOOP” in Amerikamura, and the area continues growing and attracting many young creators.
