Tsutenkaku Tower
- 通天閣
- Osaka
This observatory is a prominent symbol of Osaka's Shinsekai area. Built from steel, this strange tourist attraction was originally designed to look like Paris's Eiffel Tower standing atop the Arc de Triomphe. After being damaged in a fire, it now takes on a new image, but it still offers up a fresh world view with its neon light display at night.
