Couples get private 4-seat cabins, LED night lighting and sunset views create a romantic mood, and the wheel sits next to restaurants for an easy dinner date afterward.

Considerations for visiting Tempozan Ferris Wheel (couple trip)

Positives:

  • Next to Aquarium: Combine your ride with Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan for a full-day date.
  • Air-conditioned cabins: Enjoy comfort in hot summers and warmth in winters during the 15-minute ride.

Challenges:

  • Peak-hour queues: Wait times can exceed 30 minutes on weekends; aim for early morning or late evening.
  • Weather-dependent views: Fog or rain may obscure distant landmarks, so check the LED weather forecast on the wheel.

This wheel is really huge, and the view around it is quite nice — not spectacular, but pleasant. Honestly, I wouldn’t travel here just for this. We had an Osaka Pass and took a ferry trip, so we thought, why not ride the wheel too? There were almost no people. We had to wait a bit longer for the glass-floor cabins(10 min), but in my opinion, it’s not worth it — the regular cabins are just fine.

I enjoyed this ride. The queue waiting time for cabin with transparent floor was not long (less than 10 minutes), and the ferris wheel turning speed is excellent, you get to enjoy the view. Also, you can get guidance of what you can observe through built-in speakers in cabin.

A wonderful experience. After leaving the aquarium. We decided to take a ride since it was a quiet day and the lines were not long. Our daughters wanted to ride in the "clearview" glass bottom car, which you have to wait in a separate line for since there are only approximately eight cars out of the 60 or so that are completely clear. I will say it was definitely worth the wait for us... and the r...
