Comment: You can see how they stack em in there. Pretty efficient use of space.

The tall building is the Hilton. I went to the restaurant on the top floor for the view. * 1536 x 2048 * (541KB)

Inside the Hilton's restaurant/bar. Pretty swank. * 2048 x 1536 * (585KB)

I tried to get a shot of the city out the window with the flower reflecting in the glass, but neither the lighting nor my camera settings were right. * 1536 x 2048 * (547KB)

The capsule hotel where I stayed the first two nights. For about $35/night I got to crawl into this comfortable little hole (which even has a little TV folded against the wall!), and have access to their super-sweet sauna with cold and hot baths and steam rooms. Not a bad deal, but the complete lack of privacy would make this place a bit uncomfortable for the ladies. I didn't say anything that said guys only, but I only saw men staying there. * 2048 x 1536 * (597KB)

This sign at the capsule hotel was intriguing. Wonder what the problem is with tatoos? * 2048 x 1536 * (536KB)

Outside the hotel. * 1536 x 2048 * (491KB)

From here, you can see that the street the hotel is on is actually covered. There were many streets like this in Osaka. You feel like you're inside a giant mall, except you have to watch out for cars. * 1536 x 2048 * (551KB)

A department store and over-the-road walkways in the Kita district, near Osaka station. * 2048 x 1536 * (465KB)

There's construction everywhere. These cranes are pretty impressive. Notice the height of a single story in the buildings next to them. * 2048 x 1536 * (448KB)
