Muza-chan's Gate to Japan

Osaka's high-rise

Sat, July 21, 2012, by Muza-chan
I like modern cities and I enjoyed a lot Osaka and it's skyscrapers. There are many notable skyscrapers in Osaka, like the Rinku Gate Tower Building, the second tallest building in Japan, or the Umeda Sky Building, witch is, in my opinion, the most beautiful skyscraper from Japan.

Here is the Osaka's high-rise as you can see it from the top of Umeda Sky Building. Most of them are hotels and office buildings, the brown cylinder on the left is the Dai-ichi Hotel, immediately to the right is the Hilton Hotel, then the smaller yellow building is the Hotel Monterey Osaka (with the chapel on 8th floor), and to the right you can see the Gate Tower Building, the famous skyscraper traversed by a highway.
