NAKANOSHIMA ISLAND | On the river, Osaka No.2

I loved this shot:

It gives a nice romantic look to a really modern city

Nakanoshima island twilight view!
I took some more pictures from Keiahan City Mall, Temmabashi.
In such a short time, city has been changing its color at twilight.

Nakanoshima is my favorite place to walk around.
Nice weather, sunny day.
It's wonderful day today!

During the yearly Obon festival, people return home and
go to the family grave to honor ancestors with offerings and prayer.
Most business stop during this period in Japan.

Osaka has such a beautiful and diverse collection of street trees. Are those ones in the image above Plane Trees?
