Water bus “Aqua Liner”

Leisurely explore Osaka from a river on the Aqua Liner water bus. Visit famous destinations and historical sites around Aqua Metropolic Osaka. The “Okawa River,” which runs through the central city of Osaka, and though which the Osaka water bus circumnavigates, is a wonderful space where many historical structures, such as Osaka Castle, coexist with clusters of high rises and veridian trees. The Aqua Metropolic Osaka viewed from the surface of the river offers a different experience from the typically envisioned Osaka. You can enjoy the natural and abundant waterfront views of this aquatic metropolis.
