Umeda Center Building, Mixed-use skyscraper in Kita-ku, Japan.

Two 40-story towers connect at their highest levels through glass bridges, reaching a total height of 190 meters with their spires in central Osaka.

The structure opened in 1993 after modifications to its initial 1988 plan, which intended to create four interconnected towers instead of two.

The underground market within the building creates an accurate representation of an early 1900s Osaka street with period-specific details and design.

The Kuchu Teien Observatory opens from 9:30 AM until 10:30 PM, with adult admission at 2,000 yen and child tickets at 500 yen.

The building employs a lift-up construction method to raise its sky deck, marking the first implementation of this technique in skyscraper development.
