Namba Parks Shopping Center

When I traveled to Osaka and accidentally walked into Namba Parks Shopping Center, I was truly surprised! This place is not just a shopping center but more like a sky garden hidden in the city. The architectural design is very unique, stacked layer by layer like a canyon, with lush green walkways on the rooftop where you can stroll while overlooking the cityscape. Inside, there is a wide variety of stores, from fashion brands to specialty shops, and plenty of restaurant options offering both Japanese and Western cuisine, all of high quality. I especially love the feeling of enjoying nature while shopping; when tired, you can rest on the garden benches, which is very relaxing. Namba Parks is definitely a must-visit spot in downtown Osaka!
