Hanshin Department Store Umeda Main Store

This department store first opened in 1933 as "Hanshin Mart." Filled with Osaka spirit, it has developed into a unique major terminal department store that feels friendly and fun. Renovated and reopened in June 2018, the food section is now even more amazing! The food section has been expanded to include the first floor, with a great selection of bread and wine. The first basement has seen the return of the Snack Park, which offers an everyday Japanese taste; 13 bars offer sushi, ramen, curry and rice, tempura bowls, and not to forget grilled squid, Osaka's street food. There is also a wide range of bentos for visitors to enjoy at their hotels. This department store is truly the best place to get in touch with Japan's food culture. There are multilingual staff members for overseas customers as well as many other services, including a hand luggage cloakroom, duty-free purchasing, and a special discount service to help visitors enjoy shopping to their heart's content.
