Sennichimae Dogguya-Suji Mall

Sennichimae Dogguya-Suji is a shopping arcade with over 50 specialized stores selling professional kitchen equipment, cooking utensils, and high-quality Japanese knives. The 150-meter passage is lined with small shops displaying their goods in an organized and accessible way.

The street began in 1882 as a pilgrimage route connecting Hozenji Temple and Shitennoji Temple. During the Taisho period, it gradually transformed into a commercial area, eventually becoming a specialized kitchen equipment market.

The market reflects Osaka's reputation as a culinary center, supplying restaurant owners and home cooks with tools for traditional Japanese cooking. Many shops are family-run specialist stores that have served the same clientele for decades.

The mall is a three-minute walk from Namba Station and operates daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. It is not crowded and easy to navigate, and you can watch shopkeepers working even if you are not buying kitchen items.

Several shops display intricately crafted food models and sell workshop creations made by visitors. These realistic replicas have become so famous that they appear in restaurant windows across Japan and beyond.
