Tsutenkaku Tower, Osaka’s whimsical take on the Eiffel Tower, stands at 338 feet (103 meters) in the vibrant Shin Sekai district. Constructed in 1912, it was once the tallest building in the city, and its neon-lit exterior still draws the eye. Visitors can ascend to the observation deck for panoramic nighttime views of Osaka. The tower is also home to the beloved Billiken, a small statue known as the god of ‘things as they ought to be,’ adding a touch of local charm to the experience.
