Hirakata Tourist Volunteer Guide Corner
If you want a guide for sightseeing in Hirakata, or if you want to know the famous places in Hirakata, then leave it to our volunteer tourist guides! From recommended spots to hidden gems, our volunteer guides who are familiar with Hirakata will show you around and provide you with information.
This is the starting point of your sightseeing in Hirakata City. To apply for a volunteer guide, please call, fax, or come directly to the information counter. We accept applications from one person. As a rule, reservations must be made at least one week in advance. A contribution of 100 yen is normally required for each customer who requests a guide. In addition, the Hirakata Tourist Station is located on the same floor, and sells Hirakata's specialty products, famous sweets, and original local products, as well as the best products from Hirakata City's friendship and exchange cities. There is also a large selection of goods featuring Hirakata's tourism ambassador, "Kurawanko," as well as "Hiranyanko" and "Hikoboshikun."
