The \u2018Dotonbori\u2019 district refers to the name of the canal built from these rivers in the 1600s to improve access to trade and commerce. The modern-day Dotonbori River is 2.7km long and runs from the Dotonbashi Bridge to the Nipponbashi Bridge.<\/p>\n<p>Originally, Dotonbori was one of Osaka\u2019s main theatre districts, full of traditional Japanese theatres with live performances by Kabuki troupes, as well as shows with Bunraku, or wooden puppets of varying roles and sizes. Kabuki troupes used to carry out river parades on boats along the Dotonbori River to promote their upcoming plays.<\/p>\n<p>You can still see some river cruise guides dressed in kabuki robes, a subtle nod to the area\u2019s cultural roots. Today, Dotonbori serves as a different kind of entertainment district, and it\u2019s the place to be if you\u2019re looking for a good time!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"things-to-do-in-dotonbori\"><\/span>Things to do in Dotonbori<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>Take pictures of famous billboards<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_312446\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-312446\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-312446 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/dotonbori-osaka-glico-running-man-900x643.png\" alt=\"dotonbori osaka | glico running man\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/dotonbori-osaka-glico-running-man-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/dotonbori-osaka-glico-running-man-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/dotonbori-osaka-glico-running-man.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-312446\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Nakaharu Line via Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Dotonbori is filled with vibrant billboards &#8211; some over the top &#8211; and seeing them is a real treat. <strong>\u2018Glico Man\u2019<\/strong> is perhaps the most famous billboard in the area; tourists and locals come to take photos while striking the same pose.

For non-locals, omiyage can extend to cute memorabilia of a fun and exciting trip.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKuidaore\u201d is an old Osakan proverb that describes the city\u2019s food scene. It means \u201cto go broke eating extravagantly,\u201d or more colloquially, \u201cto eat until you drop\u201d. The image of Kuidaore Taro, a clown puppet beating a drum, is one of Osaka\u2019s well-known symbols. It also harkens back to Dotonbori\u2019s theatre district past. You\u2019ll find him on display throughout Dotonbori, and some shops even sell Kuidaore Taro merch (like socks, keychains, snacks, and hand towels).<\/p>\n<h3>Get lost inside Don Quijote<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_312450\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-312450\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-312450 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/dotonbori-osaka-river-in-the-day-900x643.png\" alt=\"dotonbori osaka river in the day\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/dotonbori-osaka-river-in-the-day-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/dotonbori-osaka-river-in-the-day-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/dotonbori-osaka-river-in-the-day.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-312450\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Don Quijote in Dotonbori.
