People often have this illusion that Osaka is just about shopping, temples, and cute girls. But actually, as long as you’re in the right place, you can find tons of thrilling attractions too. As I’m about to introduce, there's a glass ferris wheel situated right above construction — a 123-meter-tall one, the tallest in all of Japan, and it’s super exhilarating！
This "Redhorse Osaka Wheel" Ferris wheel in Osaka has a total of 72 cabins, all featuring a fully transparent glass "see-through" design — that means, even the floor is transparent!
From high above, it offers not only a grand view but also a panoramic scenery of Osaka.
Each cabin can accommodate up to 6 people and is equipped with both heating and cooling air conditioning to ensure a comfortable experience in both winter and summer. Inside the cabin, you can watch a video showcasing the journey of this Ferris wheel from its beginning to the present — that is, the short video shown below.
