Osaka is the second biggest city in Japan. It has such vibrant characters and I have always loved this place. It must be the same in big cities all around the world but Osaka has two sides as a metropolitan area. There are skyscrapers, endless shopping malls and high end apartment complexes...
奈良で育った私にとって大阪は最も身近な都会でした。独特な文化や個性的な人々など、いつも大好きな街です。 世界中のどこでも同じだと思うけれど、大阪というメトロポリタンな都市にも、二つの面があります。高層ビル、高層マンション、そして巨大なショッピングモールなど。。。 |

Just a few minutes walk away you will find streets with shops run by families and neighbourhoods where people have lived for many years.
I took some snaps while I was in Juso earlier this week. It is a typically local place and shows the contrast between that area and the shiny new facade of the Osaka station surrounds...
そうかと思えば、ちょっと一駅移動すると、家族経営の商店や昔ながらの地元付き合いの残る地域に迷い込んでいます。
今回の写真は先日”十三”に行った時のスナップです。よくありそうなローカルな雰囲気の漂う街を歩いていると、ついさっき通った大阪駅周辺の喧噪がとても遠くに感じられました。。。
