In Osaka, shopping enthusiasts can enjoy all possible categories of goods. At every step, you can find interesting stores and shopping centers. Particularly noteworthy are pavilions selling clothing and accessories of local production. When choosing them, one should pay attention to quality, as many local products are not expensive at all. At the same time, products of European brands may cost much more than in Europe so it is not really reasonable to buy them here.
The largest shopping center in town is Osaka World Trade Center located in a 55-story skyscraper. This is a place where you can buy stuff and have fun all day long. Apart from the stores, customers will find restaurants and cafes, entertainment centers, and viewing platforms. This shopping center is recommended to those who expected to bring beautiful kimonos or other national clothes from the trip. In souvenir shops, they cost much more than here.
Ladies traveling around Osaka should pay attention to stores selling products and fabrics made from natural silk. They offer equally attractive prices for chic stoles, blouses, and beautiful fabrics for sewing one's own clothes. Osaka is characterized by a rainy climate, so all kinds of umbrellas, raincoats, and waterproof bags are highly demanded among citizens. Some of these accessories are so funny that tourists willingly buy them as souvenirs.
