After recharging our energy at the Pompompurin café at Umeda underground station, we visited the HEP Five shopping mall. It is quite a big and modern department store in Osaka. It has similar fashion brands like you can find at 109 or Laforet in Tokyo. When I go shopping in Osaka, this is definitely the place I visit. There is also a Pokémon Center located 10 minutes by foot, so I always have a look at the Poké Center before or after my shopping day at the HEP Five mall.

So what does the HEP Five shopping mall offers? As I already mentioned, there are a lot of clothing stores, but also an amusement zone as well as dining facilities on the upper floors. There is also a Gudetama café, which I visited on my past trip to Japan. All in all it has around 10 floors and a huge red Ferris wheel! I always make sure to visit Lodispotto, Evelyn, Axes Femme, Heather, Cecil McBee, Ank Rouge, PLAZA and the Jump Shop. There is also a Sanrio and Disney store at the mall. If you need a break, just chill at a café or have fun at the amusement area where you will find Purikura machines, game stations and UFO catchers. There are a lot of things to do there, so make sure you plan enough time for your trip to the HEP Five mall!
