Glico Sign

The Glico Running Man has raced across the Dotonbori skyline since 1935, arms raised in eternal victory. More than mere advertising, this neon icon has become Osaka's most photographed landmark — a symbol of the city's irrepressible energy and joy. Six generations of the sign have illuminated the canal, each reflecting the spirit of its era.
