By Vidi Amelia
Tempozan Ferris Wheel is situated in Osaka, in the Tempozan Harbor Village Area. It is a great spot to relax and to get some panoramic views of the ocean and the city in the background.
A ride on the wheel takes approximately 20 minutes and costs only ¥700. The ride offers views of the surrounding areas, including the Osaka Bay, Kansai International Airport, Rokko Mountains and Mount Ikoma. You can even find out about the weather forecast based on its colour at night. If the wheel is green, it is predicting a cloudy day, while blue means rain and orange means sunny. Ncext to the wheel there are a few fountains that put on a show. Watch the water dance as it changing its colours and designs. The Shopping Center offers a wide range of shops with a selection of Japanese souvenirs, clothing and food. Walk another 3 minutes and you will find one of the biggest aquariums in the worlds, Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan.
