Midosuji Sculpture Street
A main street representative of Osaka.
One of the most popular and important streets in Osaka, Mido-Suji runs from north of the Kita Area to as far as Namba in the Minami Area. Often referred to as the "Champs Elysee of the Orient", the avenue is lined with a fabulous border of gingko trees, which cast lovely shade in the summer. When the leaves turn yellow in autumn the atmosphere of the avenue is even more romantic as people walking along a carpet of golden leaves. It's a fabulous way to enjoy nature in an urban setting.
