A look at the grimy side of "deep Osaka" 🇯🇵 ANRYŪMACHI

What's life in a forgotten little dusty corner of far southern Osaka, Japan like? I took the Hankai Tramway, Osaka's only streetcar, south from Tennoji to the stop at Anryūmachi (安立町) to take a look. The area is rough-and-tumble - decaying, but only to a point. Amid the rusty iron shacks and misshapen little alleyways are quaint shops, gorgeous old temples (I got a spontaneous private tour of one), and the friendliest people in all of Japan.

Even among Japanese people, there are not many who have mentioned this place. Every three months, I take my family member, who has aftereffects from a stroke, to a low-carb diet doctor in Abiko-michi, the next station. The old townscape remains intact all the way to the Nankai Railways Main Line to the west from here. These small lovely trains can also be chartered for private use.

This is such a cool area -- and there are a lot of little neighborhoods to explore. All of a piece but I bet each has its own unique touches. You don't get that in the same way in the newer areas of Osaka

This "grimy" neighborhood looks very tidy and livable/human scale by the standards of most of the planet, including much of the US!

This I why i like your videos so much. YOU HAVE FUN AND IT SHOWS. Nice lady to give you that tour. Yes. Please do the walk of different colors on buildings. Decay in Japan is not even close to here. Love your friends in the cafe in the end. Enjoy your list of things to look for on your walk. I have a mental list here for my walks $. Very rarely find any. 😮 Thanks Jeremy. Chat next video . Be safe and enjoy Japan and your coffee. I prefer decaf green tea. C

Wow this is a great video. A real joy to watch. I love seeing the lesser known, less traveled locations where we see day to day life. What character this town has. Especially loved the friendliness of the residents. Thank you!!

The pedestrian bridge at the start reminds me of one at Causeway Bay, Hong Hong.

Jeremy, wonderful video. Travel is so much more interesting when you do what you do and explore the out of the way places that show how real people live. To say the least I could be very happy to live in this type of obscure "run down" neighborhood. Thanks again for showing quality travel is.

I really rather enjoyed this. Great to see this off the beaten track place. I’ve commented this before but the scavenger hunt addition is great.

Always love how a set meal in Japan gives you a balanced meal. Always pickles (for digestion) and miso soup (to warm the soul). BTW I think there was a building with faded paint right around the corner.

Very probably so! Sometimes I'm distracted by something and miss something else obvious. Watching the footage afterwards I always think, "How did I not notice that thing??"

@@loudmouthnewyorker2803 Hmm, not quite. There's a certain look here of paint that used to be pretty vivid but has faded in the sun over the decades. That's specifically what I mean -- hopefully I'll find (notice) some soon
