Fun place to explore
Dec 2019 • Family
The area is a whole stretch of shopping district from start till the end where one will reach the famous Glico Man sign.
Lots to see, eat and shop. Probably half a day or so would be sufficient to finish exploring the area!

For the Shoppers amongst you ................ For Me - My idea of Hell
Oct 2019
Seething Mass of Humanity (SMOH) seeking the Holy Grail.
To me - a jabbering throng of bodies, thrown together in a hot, steamy, sweaty, smelly, crowded tunnel between lines of shops, without a care for anybody or anything, and certainly no sense of personal space.
Lived in Asia for years, but never encountered such scenes.
Being unable to read Japanese, made it more stark, as we were completely reliant on our senses of sight, sound, and smell. Sometimes even, our imagination was called into play, and not always that helpfully.
It is an experience but not for the Unwarry

Shop till you Drop
Mar 2020
Close to Dotonbori, this shopping street is everything the shopaholic needs. There are also many restaurants and chic cafes for you to rest for a while after strolling down the street. A good place to shop, but be careful as this place tends to be over packed with people.

Must go when you are in Osaka
Dec 2019
Shinsaibashi is the main shopping area in Osaka. Lots and lots of shops and restaurants. And even more tourists crowding the area. Still, one must visit Shinsaibashi when in Osaka even if it's just to absorb the energy and vibe of the city. Go at night for the dazzling night view with all the neon signs. There's bound to be something, whether shopping or eating, for everyone.

A Shopping Street it certainly is
Mar 2020
This shopping street goes on for miles with all sorts of wares on offer,from labels to cafes,to drug stores aplenty. Everything doesn't open until 11 am and closes late. Be prepared for Kamakazi bike riders criss crossing the strip and also heaps and heaps of people.Be mindful of the their traffic lights as they are above a lot of walkways and you have to have your wits about you.If you get caught Jay walking you will be booked!!!

Central Place for hopping in Osaka
Jul 2019
This is a nearby place to dotonbri where one can go for shopping of any things. But majority of the things are imported from China. The local products are also worth trying

From Osaka Docks you go with New Tram to Cosmosquare Station. Then go with Chuo Line from Cosmosquare Station to Hommachi Station. Change with Midosuji Line stop at Namba Station and vice versa

You can enjoy the atmosphere of Osaka.
There are a lot of delicious things around.
有馬温泉
Although it is a bit far away there is a place called Arima Onsen.
It is about an hour from Osaka.
It is a wonderful hot spring resort.
I have an English page. Please copy paste and search.
Please enjoy.

Is there a Onitsuka Tiger shop in Shinsaibashi? If so, are the prices cheaper compared to other countries? Thanks!

The prices are the same as the UK so I'd assume that it's worldwide. People assume that Japan is more expensive but it isn't.
Remember you do get VAT returns but it's not cumulative on your total bill. There's a minimum on a purchase before you get the saving and whatever you buy take your passport for them to stamp and put your receipt inside for customs.
But I've been twice and I've always take them out and packed them away. They tell you to keep things separate but they're not interested in inspecting your luggage.
All the best

心斎橋通りにクロスした通りで「ヨーロッパ村」はかっては、アメリカ村が若者ファッション文化に対抗して出来たプラチナ世代向けと称していたが、今さっぱりマスメディアに登場しなくなったがどうなっているのかどなたか教えてください。

心斎橋のアーケードからすぐ入れる場所にあります。 垢抜けた雰囲気で、洗練された感じのする場所で、通りには飲食店や雑貨店等いろい ろとあり、散策するのに良い場所です。

There is definitely a Disney store in Shinsaibashi it's marked on Google maps, it's not a Disneyland store but it sells some of the same merchandise, not as extensive as actually going to Disney itself. When you exit Shinsaibashi station and enter Shinsaibashi from the "top" (opposite Diesel store) it's on your right it's 4 blocks down, I.e the fifth block. Hope that helps :)

Planning to go this february with the kids 3-10yo. Any place we can bring them?

Shinsaibashi is more of a shopping street rather than for kids. If you want children-friendly attractions, I would recommend the Osaka Aquarium instead.
