Experience Location
Namba Station is the heart of southern Osaka. Bars, restaurants, and street food stalls on the colorful Dotombori entertain party goers and foodies late into the night, with the red light district a few streets beyond. For a different atmosphere, quaint bars and izakayas nestled within the narrow Hozenji Yokocho Alley lead down to Hozenji Temple, with a number of nostalgic museums and theaters throughout Namba as well.
