大都会「大阪」
Big city "Osaka"
先日も投稿したけど、この街のシンボル「大阪城」を空から撮影
As I posted the other day, I took a picture of the symbol of this city "Osaka Castle" from the sky.
すぐ近くには街を映すミラーガラスの高層ビル
In the immediate vicinity is a high-rise building with mirror glass reflecting the city.
不思議な風景ですね
It's a strange scenery.
この街は古くから商業で栄えた街。
This city has prospered from commerce since ancient times.
僕が最初に大阪で仕事をした頃には高いビルといえば、大阪駅の近くにある"丸ビル(茶色のビル)"しか無かった、でも今は周りに高層ビルディングが林立している。
When I first worked in Osaka, the only tall buildings were the "Maru Building "(brown building) near Osaka Station, but now there are many high-rise buildings around it.
少し離れた南側の天王寺という場所に、今は日本一高いビル「あべのハルカス」がある。
A little further away in the place called Tennoji Temple on the south side, there is now the tallest building in the Japan, "Abeno Harukas".
東京には日本で一番高い電波塔「スカイツリー」があるけれど、ここも周りには高いビルが少ないので、孤高のビルですね。
In Tokyo, there is the Sky Tree, the tallest radio tower in the Japan, but there are few tall buildings around here, so it is a solitary building.
