Experience retro streetscapes and traditional Osaka street food at the base of Tsutenkaku Tower
About this spot
A bustling shopping street with a strong Showa retro atmosphere, located at the base of Tsutenkaku Tower. Shops serving traditional Osaka street food, especially deep-fried skewers, line the streets, and the unique landscape crowded with lanterns and signs is enjoyable just by walking through. It's perfect for getting an early dinner and experiencing the atmosphere before heading to the Tenshibanatsu Festival venue.

天王寺公園のエントランスエリアとして整備された芝生広場「てんしば」で、2026年8月1日(土)・2日(日)に開催される夏祭りです。あべのハルカスを望む開放的な空間に出店やイベントが並び、都心にいながら夏祭りらしい賑わいを楽しめます。天王寺動物園や新世界にも近く、大阪の街の中心で気軽に立ち寄れる夏の風物詩として親しまれています。
Tips
会場は広い芝生広場なのでレジャーシートがあると快適です。夜は屋外の涼しさを感じられますが、日中の暑さが残ることもあるため飲み物は多めに。近隣の商業施設も利用できて便利です。
Tips
Within walking distance from Tennoji Zoo. At deep-fried skewer shops, there's an etiquette rule of not double-dipping in sauce, so remind children about it. The area gets crowded with tourists in the evening.
Best time to visit
Approximately 40 minutes. Early evening is relatively less crowded for entering restaurants.
