Japan, the land that mingles history with modernity as well as art with contemporary culture, is the delight of the itinerant tourist. Blessed with high street shopping malls and state d’art restaurants and taverns, you are sure to discern the style that suits you best and cosset yourself thus in the arms of extravagance. The Kirin Plaza, Osaka is the place where you should be for it is an answer to the prayers of every hedonist who is on the quest for the ‘Holy Grail’, as it were. AsiaRooms.com is here offering you all the information regarding Kirin Plaza, Osaka. The Kirin Plaza, in Japan’s third largest city, is the brainchild of Shin Takamatsu, one of the most controversial architects of the country. The piazza is a sister concern of the Kirin City chain of beer-halls of the Kirin Brewery Company Limited, a member of the Mitsubishi core string of companies. The first Kirin beer industrial unit was established in Yokohama in 1907, with the aid of the Scottish trader, Thomas Glover. One of the city’s oddly unheralded establishments is off the infamous Ebisu Bridge and was erected in the year 1987. Located at Soemon-cho 7-2, Chuo-ku, Osaka, the Kirin Plaza is known for offering its customers a dash in beertasting. Art and beer make an appealing couple at this up-to-the-minute complex, which is home to a micro-brewery on the open ground floor stories and modern-day art displays on the floors above. Since its inception, the Plaza has been reputed in international circles to be an art circulation organization. The bistro on the third storey caters to a clientele which prefers both Japanese as well as Western delicacies such as avocado tempura and hot salads. Some of the late exhibitions feature works by contemporary artists such as the London-based Japanese artist Tabaimo, whose video installations include ‘high grade men’s brains’, which is actually a jar of entrails frying in a saucepan, and an Osaka-based painter Yayoi Deki who is known of setting himself distinctive by drawing a thousand faces. If that is bizarre for the normally conventional art venues, then you must surely check out on the 12-necked guitar and 5-seater Moped shows, for a change. Trip in to Kirin to blow your mind off the oft-treaded ideologies of entertainment.
