ABENO HARUKAS OBSERVATORY

An Observatory located in the building “ABENO HARUKAS”.

The name of the skyscraper "Abeno Harukas" comes from the old Japanese word "晴るかす" (harukasu).  It means "to brighten, to clear up".

A space of wonderment.  Stunning architecture.  

Standing 300 meters (984 ft) tall, Abeno Harukas has 62 floors and the observation deck is called "Harukas 300" & occupies the building's top three floors (floors 58 to 60). It is accessed by elevator from the 16th floor. 


From 16th floor to 60th floor, the elevator pleasantly whisking the visitors in just 50 seconds to a heavenly world. A phenomenal.  It’s as if you’ve taken off from a runway on a flight into the starry night sky.


With large floor-to-ceiling glass panels all around, the 60th floor offers panoramic 360 degree views of dynamic Osaka City.  Really impressive.  Beautiful & Spectacular view is the Money’s worth. Breathtaking views of cityscape give an immersive experience. 


The 58th floor features an attractively designed inner court with a large wooden deck space that is completely open to the sky.

A souvenir shop and restrooms with views are at the 59th floor.


garden terrace (Sky Garden) on the 16th floor offers some green space to sit down and relax. Freely accessibly to everyone, the terrace also affords views down one side of the building (onto central Osaka), but the views are naturally not quite as commanding as the ones from the 60th floor.


This breathtaking observatory is a must-visit destination for travelers seeking a unique and awe-inspiring experience. Offering unparalleled 360-degree panoramic views of the vibrant urban landscape, Harukas 300 provides a stunning perspective of the city and beyond.
