【Osaka】Umeda Sky Building・Floor Garden Observatory: 360-degree open-air views, perfect for any season and time

The landmark of Osaka's Umeda, the Umeda Sky Building and the Floating Garden Observatory, is an observation facility consisting of three floors: the 39th and 40th floors and the rooftop. The transparent escalator from the 35th floor to the 39th floor is a very popular photo spot. The indoor observation floor on the 40th floor has a 35-meter-long bar facing floor-to-ceiling windows, as well as a circular bar, where travelers can try the experience of drinking coffee as if they were floating in the sky. The 360-degree open-air rooftop observation deck is sure to be breathtaking no matter what season or time of year. It was a sunny day when we visited, with blue sky and white clouds as far as the eye can see, and the scenery was very beautiful.
