The tour of Osaka Castle and Tsutenkaku such as Osaka's sightseeing spots, popular characters such as Super Mario and Pikachu and making tours by cart is increasingly popular mainly for foreign tourists. After the service started in October, it was picked up at the tourism website in Hong Kong, and it was raging in reservations due to being talked about in SNS. While the market for foreign visitors to Japan (inbound) market is expanding, the "real experience" that runs through the city of Osaka and runs as a character has become a new tourism style.
