Overview
Osaka Bay Area Tour,Undiscovered by Tourists.The well-developed public transportation system of Osaka makes it easy and convenient to get around, but the most convenient way to get around is by bicycle. Especially in this bay area, public transportation is not well developed, so ordinary tourists rarely enter the area. The entire tour is about 30 kilometers, cycling from reclaimed land to reclaimed land, on high bridges and ferries over canals, passing through factories, warehouses and residential areas, allowing you to enjoy the Osaka you have never seen before. From each bridge, you can enjoy the entire city of Osaka from different angles.
Not a tourist destination, but a new tourist destination.
Everything is easy with the YAMAHA E-Assist bike.
