Rinku Town Outlet Mall in Osaka

Rinku Town is Osaka’s premium outlet shopping center, located close to Kansai International Airport.

Many visitors to Japan like to stop at this destination to buy premium brand clothing at heavily discounted prices. Now that summer has finally given way to cooler weather, it may also be a good idea to stock up on some warm clothing.

Most trains bound for Kansai Airport will stop at Rinku Town Station, so getting there is pretty easy if your route starts from Umeda (where Hotel Kinki is located). You can take the Midosuji subway line or JR Osaka Loop line to Tennoji station, and then transfer to a train that’s headed to the airport.

Rinku Town has many, many outlet stores - checking them all out in one day may not even be possible! And unlike some shopping centers in Japan, you’ll find a plethora of stores specifically targeting men’s clothing.

The outlet mall closes at 8 pm. Afterwards, you can visit the nearby Seacle center to grab a bite to eat before returning home.
