The Midosuji Line, one of the oldest and most prominent, serves as a central axis, connecting major districts such as Umeda, Namba, and Tennoji. Beyond the Midosuji Line, other lines such as the Tanimachi Line, the Yotsubashi Line, and the Nagahori Tsurumi-Ryokuchi Line extend across the city, providing commuters and tourists with convenient access to various destinations.
