What people say
Samantha Lorenz
"This neighborhood is a nostalgic and lively neighborhood that showcases the old and new sides of the city. Translated as "New World," Shinsekai was originally developed in the early 20th century and still retains its retro charm. The iconic Tsutenkaku Tower stands tall as a symbol of the area, offering panoramic views of the city. Walking through the vibrant streets of Shinsekai, you'll find an abundance of affordable eateries, izakayas serving local delicacies, and street food stalls offering delicious treats like kushikatsu. The atmosphere is lively and bustling, providing a glimpse into Osaka's vibrant street culture and culinary delights."
