Tennoji Ward

Tennoji is a sprawl of skyscrapers and family-friendly green spaces centered on Shitennoji Temple, a 6th-century Zen complex in tranquil gardens. Tennoji Park encompasses a popular zoo and the Osaka Museum of Fine Arts. Shinsekai is a retro-style, neon-lit entertainment zone where late-night crowds hit pubs and snack bars. Modern malls surround Tennoji Station, and nearby Abeno Harukas tower has an observation deck.
