A retro neighborhood in southern Osaka modeled in the early twentieth century on Paris and Coney Island, centered on the Tsutenkaku tower. The district retains a distinct working-class character with kushikatsu restaurants, pachinko parlors, and vintage advertising tiles lining narrow streets. It offers an atmospheric contrast to the city's more modern districts and documents a layer of Showa-era urban life.
