Suminoe-ku, Administrative ward in southwest Osaka, Japan.
Suminoe-ku extends along Osaka Bay, featuring commercial districts, residential neighborhoods, and industrial zones across the largest land area among Osaka wards.
The ward emerged from municipal restructuring in 1974, transforming from a boat-building and metal works center into a modern residential and commercial district.
Kitakagaya neighborhood contains galleries, artist workshops, urban farms, and creative spaces intermixed with traditional wooden houses and industrial facilities.
Three subway lines, two rail lines, and three expressways connect Suminoe-ku to central Osaka, with direct ferry services to Shikoku, Kyushu, Shanghai, and Busan.
The Osaka Prefectural Government Sakishima Building ranks as Japan's third tallest structure, providing observation decks overlooking Osaka Bay.
