Access / LOCATION
It takes about 15 minutes on foot from here in Fukushima to Umeda Station and Osaka Station.
And, you can go to Namba, Shinsaibashi, and Dotonbori in about 15 minutes by train or bicycle.
Shin-Umeda Sky Building (Kuchu Teien) and the National Museum of Art are within walking distance.
I highly recommend taking a walk in Nakanoshima's waterside area! Although it is in the middle of the city, it is rich in nature. It takes only 5 minutes on foot from here in "U-en".
You can rent a bicycle. We also highly recommend going around Osaka by a bicycle.
There are many unique shops and restaurants in Fukushima area, so enjoy atmosphere of this city.
