Captured by DassaiShooku, the video showcases the major landmarks and urban redevelopment near JR Osaka Station in the Umeda area. The journey begins at Hankyu Sanban Gai, a well-known subterranean shopping street in Umeda, followed by a glimpse of the impressive Yodobashi Umeda Tower, known for its expansive electronics store and rooftop dining.

The centerpiece of this video is the expansive Grand Green Osaka development, specifically highlighting the sleek architectural features of the newly constructed North and South Buildings.
Umekita Park, which lies between these two buildings, is also featured prominently. With open green areas like the 'Grass Square' and unique design elements such as the 'Gate Lantern', 'Inspiration Path', and 'Large Canopy', the park blends nature and urban life seamlessly. Notably, the video also spotlights monumental sculptures like 'FULL BLOOM II' by Jun Kaneko and 'YUMEMITAI' by Ram Katzir, as well as artistic elements from Hirohiko Araki and Ted Hyber.
The tour wraps up at INOGATE Osaka and the JR Osaka Station Expressway Bus Terminal, completing a full loop through one of the city's largest and most innovative development zones. Viewers get to appreciate the thoughtful integration of green space, public art, and cutting-edge architecture—all part of Osaka's transformation toward the 2025 Osaka Expo vision.
