In the early morning it is still relatively empty here. The streets fill up during the day.

Shinsekai & Tsutenkaku – a famous district in Osaka 🇯🇵
The Shinsekai District
Shinsekai is a very well-known district in southern Osaka. Its name means "New World." It was built in the early 20th century as a modern entertainment district – a kind of futuristic city for its time.
Today, Shinsekai has a rather retro feel, almost like a time capsule from the 1950s and 1960s:
lots of neon lights
small bars and restaurants
arcades, pachinko parlors, and old shopping streets
huge billboards overhead
Many visitors say that it feels like stepping back into an old Osaka.
