    Midosuji Boulevard is one of Osaka’s best-known and most bustling roads; it is a major road artery that extends for four kilometers, linking Umeda in the north with Naniwa in the south. Midosuji Boulevard was selected for inclusion in the “Top 100 Best Roads in Japan.” The name “Midosuji” (“Temple Street”) derives from the two temples along the route: the Kita-mido Temple and Minami-mido Temple. The Boulevard is lined with prestigious department stores and other large shops, banks, the headquarters of major companies, etc., making this area the commercial, shopping and tourist center of Osaka. The pedestrian footpaths at the side of the Boulevard are lined with rows of Gingko trees, creating a very beautiful sight; in winter, the trees are illuminated.
