hrs Estimate Duration

Spend hours shopping in Dotonbori, a vibrant entertainment district in downtown Osaka that boasts a seemingly endless number of stores and restaurants in a compact, easy-to-walk eight-block area. After being dropping off in the heart of the district, you will be free to explore for about three hours. You can stay longer if you wish and then return to the ship on your own. Either way, you will be awed by the dazzling visuals, as Dotonbori is known for its giant, often three-dimensional billboards adorned with everything from a giant crab with moving legs to Uncle Karl, the wide-mouthed mascot for a popular brand of cheese puffs. The sights couldn’t be more flamboyant and over-the-top. The collection of stores is just as spectacular. Most every imaginable type of merchandise can be found in Dotonbori, from exquisite designer fashions to quirky souvenirs. Sushi is a great choice if you are dining.
