Osaka Ilumination @ Midosuji 2014

Hello! This is Masae from Osaka Hana Hostel.

It' getting cold in Osaka and it is hard to get out from the bed in the morning....

But this is my favorite season in a year!!

Mido-suji Illumination 2014 is going to start from the 1st of December!
Mido-suji Avenue is the famous and it is knows as the main street in Osaka which run from North to South.
And under Midosuji Avenue, there is Subway called Midosuji subway runs.

You can see it near Osaka Hana Hostel!

Illumination used to be started from Honmachi area (5minutes walk from Osaka Hana Hostel) , so our guests need to walk a little bit to see them.

Sometime of our guests didn't know there was illumination and it was so pity...
So I recommend them to walk there to see it. It is worth to see it.

BUT from this year, they extend the lights to Namba Station (southern station from Shinsaibashi), so you can see it at Shinsaibashi!

I am so excited about this event!
This light towards to Yodoyabashi area about 3km. 

Also more illumination event is held in Osaka!
