This time too, street corner watching will be the “Kinki series”.
The seventh is “Abeno Harukas”.
I’ve been to Abeno Harukas several times, but this is my first time shooting a video.
Abeno Harukas is a skyscraper towering in the Abeno district of Osaka.
Opened in March 2014, it has become a hot topic as a new landmark in Osaka due to its height.
The word “Harukas” is derived from the ancient word “Harukasu” and means “to make people’s hearts clearer”.
The height is 300 meter.
As of 2020, it has surpassed the height of the Yokohama Landmark Tower to become “the tallest building in Japan”.
Inside, there is the main store of the historic Kintetsu Department Store, museums, and hotels, and it is crowded with many people on weekends.
Take the Harukas Shuttle Elevator to the 16th floor.
On the 16th floor, there is also the Abeno Harukas Museum and a garden area where you can feel the wind about 80 meter above the ground.
Go to the popular spot, the observation area called “Harukas 300” on the 58th to 60th floors.
Buy a ticket and board the dedicated elevator.
The observation room on the 60th floor is on the north side when you get off the elevator.
You can see Osaka Castle, Tsutenkaku, Tennoji Zoo, Namba and Umeda buildings.
On the west side, you can see the mountains of Kobe and Rokko.
The south side is toward Wakayama.
The Osaka plain spreads out.
The east side is toward Nara.
You can see Mt. Ikoma and Mt. Nijo in the distance.
There is a souvenir shop on the 59th floor, and the atrium deck “Tenku Garden” is on the 58th floor.
This concludes the introduction of “Abeno Harukas”.
