Mr. Yano's favorite spot in Osaka

This is an incredible building. look at these pictures.
There is a highway inside the building. As it sounds, so many cars pass through this building!!

It was made just for SF movies.....maybe no. I'm sure this building is reall awesome if u make a racing movie or something.
Well, I guess there were not so many spaces to build since Osaka has had loads of buildings or the architecture were creative. Also, there is a heliport at roof top. damn!!!

I might have to ask Mr. Yano why it was build.

It's located here. I have not checked it yet but I'll definitely go take a look soon.
