Photos are allowed in this single floor exhibit located on the 9th floor. Although the exhibition is small, the place was surprisingly popular with a decent queue before doors open.
Audio guides come at ¥100rental.

The whole exhibition is pretty decent. The audio guide gives a little bit more in-depth info over the paper information slips with English translations.

Probably the main draw is the cheap kimono rental at ¥500 per pax and instagram worthy picture opportunities. Blocked timings and limited slots are available. Long queues were seen under an hour after doors open.

Overall the museum is a great deal for kimono rental and picture taking. Plus it provides a small glimpse into "Edo period Osaka". Try to stay at least an hour to catch the digital fire works and changing “sky line”.


Tenjinbashi Shopping Street

Claiming to be the longest shopping street in Osaka, Tenjinbashi stretches for over 2km. The place has a very local atmosphere selling neighborhood goods and offering plenty of dining options along the way.
 *Local barber shop*
*Some of the eats, and elderly care shop*
There’s really nothing much to scream about. One can give it a miss contrary to a must visit place as stated online. Really average and not great. (The street is located right beside the Osaka Museum Of House and Living reviewed above.)
