Stroll through the nostalgic alleyways of Hozenji Yokocho, filled with traditional architecture that transports you back to Osaka’s past.

Next, we head to Namba Yasaka Shrine, famous for its impressive lion-head structure, a symbol of strength, protection, and good fortune. Here, you’ll learn about Namba’s history as a cultural and entertainment centre since the Edo period.

The experience concludes at Edion Arena, the venue for Osaka’s major sumo tournaments. With your reserved-seat ticket, you’ll witness live one of Japan’s oldest and most respected traditional sports.
