- Dotonbori Main Street Glico Sign Night Walk 📍Dotonbori Glico Sign This is the hottest photo zone in Dotonbori, Osaka, Japan! They took pictures in similar poses in front of the Glico Sign~~ We took a night walk around the area centered around the Glico Sign There were a lot of Koreans as well as foreigners -Nightlife and scenery of Osaka, Japan Osaka is famous for its food and nightlife~ There are a lot of places in Osaka that you can't see often in Tokyo! Maid cafes and host bars! And there are a lot of gacha shops in Japan these days~ It seems like gacha is popular here :) - Korea seen from Osaka Dotonbori You can find Korean culture everywhere, such as Hanshin Pocha, Seoul Mart, and 7-Eleven! Seoul Mart sells Korean cup ramen and Korean products, but they are more expensive than you think, so it's a loss if you buy them here. ㅎ - A hidden and wonderful photo zone near Osaka Dotonbori 📍Kigawa A street with a Japanese vibe that I took a picture of while passing by! You can see this alley view if you go to a restaurant called Kigawa :) If you go a little away from the main street of Dotonbori, you can see many alleys with a uniquely Japanese vibe~ In Japan, photos taken in alleys like this come out prettier! #OsakaTravel #Osaka #Dotonbori #DotonboriTravel #JapanTravel

When you visit Osaka, there is a course that you must visit even if you don't include it in your itinerary. That is the Glico Sign! I took pictures of the Glico Sign during the day and at night! It is pretty during the day and pretty at night, right? What do you prefer, day or night?! ✨Tip If you go to take pictures at night, there will be a lot of people, but if you stand under a bridge and take pictures, you can take good pictures, so go to a place where there are no people➿ 📍Dotonbori Glico Sign ◾️The lights turn on around 7 o'clock! Check the time before you go👒 #OsakaTravel #OsakaHotPlace

The Glico LED sign is not only a sign that indicates the popularity of the famous snack brand Glico, but it is also one of the most important landmarks in Osaka. The Glico LED sign was first built in 1953 and is located at Ebisubashi Bridge, a small bridge connecting Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi, a popular shopping district in Osaka. Throughout the years, the Glico sign has been redesigned to be unique and beautiful, until we get to the Glico sign we see today, which is now in its sixth generation. It still features the iconic Glico runner, but adds a colorful red circle symbol of Japan behind the runner, and replaces neon lights with LED lights that save many times more energy. This 6th generation sign is made up of 140,000 LED lights. The switch to LED lights is also intended to honor the three Japanese scientists who won the Nobel Prize for inventing the blue LED light bulb, an energy-saving and environmentally friendly innovation. The sign is 10.38 meters wide and 20 meters high. When night falls, the background light of the young runner is turned on, projecting various moving images, including images of Osaka’s important tourist attractions, images of the brand’s new products falling down on the runners, etc. As a snack brand loved by people all over the world, the creativity in creating the sign and the location where the sign is located are a perfect combination, making the Glico LED sign popular with tourists who stop by to take pictures with it. It has been recognized as a landmark that anyone visiting Osaka should not miss visiting and taking pictures of as a souvenir.

#I went to Osaka for a Japan trip! It would be unfair to go to Osaka and not see the Glico sign😆 I went to Dotonbori and saw all the Glico signs ㅎㅎ Dotonbori is a place full of flashy signs and can be said to be the identity of Osaka👍🏻 ☑️Location of the Glico sign: Around the middle of Dotonbori! ☑️A great tip for taking pictures with the Glico sign❤️ 1. There are fewer people if you go up the stairs instead of right in front! 2. Go up the bridge and take a picture Everyone, if you go to Osaka, Japan, you must!! Take a picture with the Glico sign📸

Osaka is beautiful during the day, but at night, when lights come on everywhere, it is twice as beautiful. Take a trip around Osaka following the lights embroidered on the streets. #Osaka #Dotonbori #Travel #JapanTravel

A must-see photo spot on your trip to Osaka‼️ #Dotonbori #Glico sign This was my first trip to Osaka. I finally got to see the Glico sign that I had only heard about😆 As expected of the symbol of Dotonbori, it was clearly visible from far away. People usually take pictures of the Glico sign at a spot on the bridge, but there are so many people there that it’s not easy to take pictures😂(Especially in the evening…🥲) So we got off the bridge and took pictures from a place where the Glico sign was directly in front of us. Please note that there weren’t many people here and the Glico sign came out well✨ 📍Dotonbori, Osaka ✔️ Free ride on the Dotonbori River Cruise with a Osaka Pass! ✔️ Personally, I think the Glico sign looks better during the day… ♡ #dotonbori #glico #glicosign #Osaka #OsakaTravel #OsakaTravelCourse #OsakaPlacesToVisit #osaka #osakatrip #japantrip #japan

#MarchTravelSupportEvent Why does Japan have different emotions no matter how you take photos? - Osaka Edition📸 When considering a travel destination in Japan, which place is the safest to enjoy? I definitely think Osaka. Honestly, even if you just take photos here, you can get emotional photos. Is it because neon signs are shining in every alley, and old buildings and modern stores are mixed, that no matter what you take, it feels like a scene from a movie? Is it because of the exotic atmosphere? And Osaka has a unique, bustling energy. The lively people, endless food, and crazy lights of Dotonbori throughout the trip… All of this strangely made me feel drunk even without a drink. But it’s not bad at all, and it’s a city that makes you think about it and want to go back again because you’re drunk on the atmosphere. After going there about three times, I feel like I can pretty much memorize the streets. But still, Osaka is a place I want to go again. Isn’t this the magic of Osaka? 😆
