Tennō-ji is one of the more dated areas of central Osaka.
It’s where you go to see the weirder people of Japan’s second city apparently,
although there didn’t seem to be many of them hanging around on Sunday
afternoon.
The main attraction is quite hard to miss - Osaka’s answer
to the Eiffel Tower: Tsūten-kaku.
It was built in 1912, then rebuilt in 1969. This was once
the heart of the city, but now it’s surrounded by seedy Pachinko (gambling)
parlours and the like.
There was one shop that caught my eye though. They offered
to buy my muscles from me, but then realised that their storage area wasn’t big
enough.
