💡 Tips for Visitors
Many smaller restaurants and shops are cash-only, so carry yen despite the area being tourist-friendly. Visit Dotonbori in the evening when the neon signs are lit up for the best photo opportunities and atmosphere. Namba Station connects multiple train and subway lines, making it an excellent base for exploring Osaka and beyond.
