As one of Japan’s largest cities, Osaka is naturally home to a host of sky-piercing towers. While the views from these skyscrapers may not be as instantly recognisable as Tokyo’s cityscape, the sights of Osaka Bay, Osaka Castle and the surrounding mountain ranges are no less captivating.
Crucially, many of these buildings don’t just offer stunning views; they also hide relaxing rooftop gardens, lush with greenery and open to the public for free. So the next time you’re looking to escape the crowds, don’t duck into a café – look up.
