The audio walking tour can include stops such as Dotonbori Canal and Glico Man Sign — Osaka's neon heart, a waterside walking route past giant signs, street food vendors, and the famous running man billboard, plus hidden gems like Nakazakicho — a quiet neighborhood of renovated prewar wooden houses turned into indie cafes, bookshops, and galleries, walkable from Umeda in ten minutes and Sumiyoshi Taisha — one of Japan's oldest Shinto shrines with a distinctive arched bridge and vermilion buildings, far from the tourist crowds.
