Tempozan Ferris Wheel at night was a beautiful and relaxing experience for our family. The city lights, Osaka Bay view, and the calm movement of the wheel created a very peaceful vibe—perfect for ending the day.
Riding it with my wife and kids felt safe and comfortable. The cabins are spacious, the ride is smooth, and the night scenery from the top is really stunning, especially with the illuminated harbor and city skyline. Simple, calm, and memorable—great family moment and highly recommended for a night visit.
Riding the Tempozan Ferris Wheel was an incredible experience. Located near Osaka’s bay area, the Ferris wheel offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city, Osaka Bay, and on clear days, even Mount Ikoma and Akashi Kaikyō Bridge in the distance.

Tempozan ferris wheel is one of the largest ferries wheels in Japan. Short walk from Osaka Aquarium. It offers awesome panaromic views of Osaka city and the bay. Go during sunset for the most beautiful scenery. We went into the standard cabin as the see-through cabin was scary, and the standard cabin also had a shorter queue.
This is my second ferris wheel ride in Osaka after the Hep five in Umeda. The entrance area is much easier to find, feel more relaxed and less stressful than Hep Five. And I could say I like Tempozan much more. The scenary is great and the view have great balance between shore and the cities. The duration is also perfect. Not too long and not too short, it end exactly when I want it to end.
The ticket price is okay I think it's a good way to pass time if you're waiting for your entry to the Kaiyukan Aquarium or Santa Maria cruise as these three location is very close to each other.
