Osaka is the largest merchant city in western Japan. The town is divided into two areas -- Kita and Minami, literally translating as North and South. These areas have very different characteristics, which you will discover on a panoramic drive through lively Osaka.
Head to Osaka North, whose downtown area is called Kita or Umeda. This is a business and shopping district surrounding Osaka station. You will see the Umeda Sky building -- an arch-shaped architecture which consists of two towers with a sky garden and atrium on the top. The garden is actually an observatory and, when the building was constructed, it was lifted up from the ground to the upper level, connecting the towers.
Next, you will drive to the Osaka South, or Minami, downtown area -- a shopping and entertainment district. This is where the locals seek out the best food in the city.
Finally, head to Osaka castle and enjoy a view of this key landmark of the city before you transfer back to the ship.
