HEP FIVE Ferris Wheel - visitor guide

HEP FIVE 観覧車

HEP FIVE's red Ferris wheel rises through a shopping complex in the dense Umeda district. As the cabins move above the roofline, the surrounding stations, towers and commercial streets become part of a changing city panorama. Its central location makes the wheel easy to consider alongside Umeda shopping, subject to the current operating notice.
