Umeda Sky Building is a high tide building that has a roof top observatory. The observatory gives you a spectacular view of the whole city. Beware for people scared with heights. The escalator going to the observatory is situated at the very top floors of the building, which means that you’ll be seeing the very bottom of the building, not to mention the ride is very long. Nonetheless, you still get spectacular views during that dreadful trip.
