Luisete dixit: "La zona de Namba es la bomba, Shinsekai, Tennoji, el parque de Tennoji con todos sus homeless, los love hotel, Amerika Mura, la avenida Midosuji con su Apple Store, Shinsaibashi, El Glico Man, la estatua del Kuidaore, el Acuario..."
Hay un centro de turismo e información en Namba:
Osaka Visitors’ Information Center, Namba is located in a building close to Namba Station, served by subways Midosuji Line, Sennichimae Line, and Nankai Line. The Center provides advice on various aspects of sightseeing in Osaka City, and is open every day. The Center is also staffed by members of Osaka SGG Club, a volunteer organization set up to assist overseas visitors (una especie de Big Apple Greeters: OSGG Club website: www18.ocn.ne.jp/~osakasgg/ ).
