A stamp rally called "Footprints All Over Town! Osanpo Stamp Rally" is coming to the Tennoji and Abeno district starting June 10, 2026, celebrating the arrival of a Malaysian Elephant at Tennoji Zoo — the first elephant to visit in about eight years. The event is organized by the Tennoji-Abeno Terminal Liaison Council (TA Council), a collaboration of 12 local companies focused on regional revitalization.
The rally features photo spots illustrated by local designers in a warm, hand-drawn style. Running concurrently with "Osaka Art & Design 2026," it offers more than just stamp collecting — both adults and children can rediscover the neighborhood's charms through art and design woven into the streets.
