Nostalgic Platform Bar to Open for Four Nights at Osaka’s Nakanoshima Station

Here’s a fun idea from Keihan Railway. Later this month Platform 3 at Osaka’s Nakanoshima Station is to be transformed into an old-fashioned izakaya style bar!

For four nights from June 22nd, one platform and some stationary train carriages will be transformed into a nostalgic bar zone, with various food stalls, standing counter bars, and table seating. The event is intended to both advertise and celebrate the appeal and charm of the Nakanoshima area, so along with the food and drink, revelers will be able to view local historical photographs and cultural exhibits. A casual tavern-like atmosphere will be created to match the nostalgic theme.
