Osaka Record Store Shopping Guide! A Must-Visit Itinerary for Vinyl Enthusiasts

As a music lover, Osaka is truly a vinyl record paradise! We recommend several hidden gem record stores in the Umeda area, and you can conveniently handle tax refunds after shopping～

📍 "Disk Union" Umeda store is the top choice! The store is meticulously divided by floors, where you can find everything from classical to rock, Japanese pop to Western hits. The basement level is a dedicated vinyl section with a complete range of new and old records. Another hidden gem, "Vinyl Revolver," specializes in vintage and rare records. Although the space is small, you can always discover limited edition singles!

Shopping tips: Remember to bring your passport; you can get a tax refund on purchases over 5,000 yen! It’s best to shop all on the same day, fill out the tax refund form directly in the store, and easily process the refund at the airport or city tax refund counters. For your itinerary, start by visiting the Umeda Sky Building to enjoy the Osaka night view, then walk to the record stores to browse at leisure, and finally handle your tax refund near the station—super smooth!

Finding your own romance in a space filled with music—that’s the right way to experience Osaka travel～#OsakaVinyl #TaxRefundGuide #RecordHunting
