Imakusa-so, Osaka, Tempozan - Tall Lantern -
[A Fusion of Old and New Landmarks] The design concept for this facility is the “tall lantern” and “Ikesu.” On Tempozan—once Japan’s lowest mountain—a tall lantern (lighthouse) was erected long ago to serve as a navigational marker for ships, and Japan’s oldest aquarium also supplied fish to the market during economic downturns. Today, the giant Ferris wheel has taken on that role, becoming a symbol of the area. Here, home to “Kaiyukan”—one of the world’s largest aquariums—we have brought this collaboration between old and new to life. Whether you’re travelling with family, as a couple, or in a group, we hope your stay—tailored to your specific needs—will create lasting memories. Please enjoy this hideaway-like space right in the heart of the bustling city centre.
