Osaka Prefectural Government Sakishima Building, Government skyscraper in Nanko-kita, Japan.
The Osaka Prefectural Government Sakishima Building rises 256 meters with its glass and steel structure, featuring 55 floors above ground and 3 underground levels.
The building opened in 1995 as the Osaka World Trade Center before becoming the Osaka Prefectural Government Sakishima Building after its acquisition in 2010.
The observation deck on the 55th floor presents views of Osaka Bay, mountain ranges, and neighboring islands while visitors enjoy local specialties like Sakishima Priyan.
