An unforgettable experience! The HEP Five Ferris Wheel offers stunning panoramic views of Osaka, especially at night when the city lights up. The ride is smooth and relaxing, and the air-conditioned gondolas make it comfortable even on warmer days.

Highly recommend it for couples, families, or anyone wanting a unique perspective of Osaka!
We visited the HEP Five Ferris Wheel and it wasn’t crowded at all. After redeeming the Osaka E-Pass, we could board the gondola within a minute - super fast and hassle-free!
The ride was very smooth and stable, even though it was high up. The gondola didn’t shake at all, even with the wind. We felt safe the whole time. The view of Osaka city from the top was beautiful.
Staff were also very friendly and helpful. A great experience overall - definitely worth it with the Osaka E-Pass!
Visited with Osaka Amazing Pass! Chill, slow-paced ride with beautiful city views. I went in the evening, and it was cool to see the neon lights, though the daytime view may have been more appealing. I appreciated that there was a window decal that helps you identify the major sights. We were able to get a glimpse of Osaka castle! Not sure if that was only possible due to darkness and illumination of the castle in the distance.
Went here with Osaka Amazing Pass, it’s not crowded at all when I went so we could get on the ferris wheel very quickly. It’s a nice break from so much walking and I can enjoy Osaka skyline from above. Worth going if you have the time ☺️
I visited the Hep Five Ferris Wheel in September 2024, and it was an amazing experience that I highly recommend to anyone visiting Osaka. I arrived at around 5:30 pm, and the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Watching the sunset from the Ferris wheel was absolutely breathtaking—the colors of the sky and the city below were so beautiful, creating a magical atmosphere.
Fortunately, it wasn’t crowded during my visit, so the ticket purchase process was quick and hassle-free. The staff were polite and efficient, which made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable.
The Ferris wheel itself is a standout attraction. As it slowly ascends, you’re treated to panoramic views of Osaka. From the top, the view is stunning, offering a unique perspective of the city. The combination of urban landscapes, distant mountains, and the warm glow of the sunset made this experience unforgettable.
The cabins are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with plenty of space to sit back and take in the scenery. It’s a relaxing ride that lasts just the right amount of time to enjoy the views without feeling rushed.
Whether you’re traveling solo, with friends, or with family, the Hep Five Ferris Wheel is a fantastic spot to add to your Osaka itinerary. It’s especially recommended for those who love photography or simply want a memorable way to see the city from above.
