Hozenji Yokocho

A stone-paved alleyway surrounding a small temple south of Dotonbori. Traditional shops and soft lighting create an atmosphere distinct from the flashy riverside of the main district. Explore the moss-covered Buddha statue at Hozenji and the surrounding alleys, and choose restaurants by checking their menus and business hours. As it is a narrow path, please step aside to let others pass rather than stopping for long periods to take photos. Respect the flow of worshippers and shop patrons; it is a great spot for a short walk before or after enjoying the Dotonbori night view.
