Pictures of Osaka Japan


We stayed at the Righa Royal Hotel in Osaka.	The beds were small and low but very comfortable.	The toilet at the Rihga Royal was elaborate.


We had no idea what all this was but it was beautiful.	We are used to No Smoking in restaurants .. In Japan you could smoke but DO NOT USE A CELL PHONE.	The lobby had a beautiful waterfall in back of glass.


The Lights looked like clouds.	Lots of cranes around for the construction going on in Osaka.	A canal in front of the Hotel.


To use lots of space in the garage, they had elevators.	They can really pack a lot of cars in a small space.	Vending machines were everywhere.


Fabulous Designer shopping in the hotel.. it was huge.	We had coffee in the lobby lounge and this was our lovely waitress.	Lots of food samples so that we Westerners would know what to order.


Finally there she is .. The Sapphire Princess.	The Tempozan Ferris wheel was right next to the boat.	A view of the Sapphire from the dock at Osaka.


The Tempozan Ferris Wheel, one of the largest in the world.	Lots of interesting ships sailed by to take a look at the Sapphire Princess in port.	This was the "Santa Maria" tour boat in Osaka Harbor.


Looking from the bottom of the Tempozan Ferris Wheel.	One of the gondolas on the Ferris wheel.	A view from he Ferris wheel.


An even bigger view from the Ferris wheel.	The Tempozan Market at the dock. A very large indoor shopping mall.	Another view of the Tempozan Market.
