Things to do in Kyobashi Station

My second-grade son recently became interested in sumo, so we booked a sumo experience and visited. It was close to the station and easy to find. Mr. Ryu and Mr. Kai's demonstrations were excellent, and the explanation of sumo history was very informative. My son absolutely loved the chance to compete against the sumo wrestlers at the end! He was the only child among the participants, and they raised his hand as the champion at the end, which made him incredibly happy! :) There were many foreigners, so the explanations were given in fluent English. However, as a Korean who is more comfortable with Japanese than English, I thought it would be great if the historical explanations were also available in other languages, like Korean, or even just in Japanese! Anyway, we had a wonderful time, and it was a valuable experience that was well worth the money! :)

Had an absolute ball. super friendly staff, safety was excellent with hand rail getting into boat and comfortable seating. Fun captain and music made it super enjoyable and some brief history in various languages. well thought out quick 20 minute tour but worth it for the experience and photos.

Very good workshop and step by step guidance given to complete the activity right from cracking a plate to repairing the crack and making it more beautiful !! the guide was very helpful and patient with me in teaching me. thank you for the experience!!

it’s very interesting experience how to make the chopstick. it’s alot of work.

Nice and cheap small experience and you get a cool souvenir at the end. The guidance was nice and clear with good English. Don't feel pressured to buy the prenium wood, the starting one also looks great!

it was a great way to see the city lights! because it rained, we had to wear raincoats. I think I would buy a more flexible ticket next time to try and avoid the rain :) The music was good and the guides were very friendly

Absolutely great experience! I chose the 1.5‑hour night tour, and I’d definitely recommend going for the later time if you’re visiting in summer. I actually ended up with a personal tour, which made the whole drive even better. Seeing Osaka Castle lit up at night, along with the tower, was a highlight. Make sure to arrive at least 30 minutes early, since there’s a short safety video you need to watch before driving. You can also rent a GoPro (extra cost) if you want to capture your driving experience — totally worth it if you want to relive the ride later. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to drive like Mario in Mario Cart 😁 Will definitely be doing this again. 5⭐️ to the crew.

It was an awesome show.. the organisers took good care of everyone. The experience of challenging the Sumo wrestlers was one of its kind .. had such a good time. it was worth every penny spent..

My old coin was easily transformed into a beautiful ring! I made some wonderful memories in Osaka. I participated with my mother, as we always do, and the staff kindly taught us how to make the rings, so we were able to create truly lovely pieces. In addition to ring making, they also offer workshops for chopstick making and Kintsugi (the art of repairing pottery with gold), so I think there are many things to enjoy. The shop was newly opened, bright, and clean, located on the 8th floor of a building with great views, including the Kabuki-za theater. It was a wonderful spot. It was also conveniently located near Namba and Shinsaibashi, making it great for sightseeing. I had no idea there was such a fantastic workshop in Osaka. I highly recommend it to everyone. Next time, I'd like to try Kintsugi. The prices were also very reasonable.
