Abstract
This study was carried out to seek the favored scenery structure of the city dwellers in Osaka City by analyzing the relationship between the scenery and the landform or the land use. As a result, the following becomes clear. First, even if the city accumulation is remarkable in downtown of Osaka, the space composed of natural elements such as the woods, the row, the surface of the water and so on is important. Second, in the commercial area which spreads to the west side on the Uemachi plateau, the city basis facilities such as the avenue which produces rich scenery are important. Moreover, the trenches or the rivers which leave the personality of Water City Osaka are important. Third, in the residential area which spreads to the southern part and the eastern part on the Uemachi plateau, the neighborhood green of human scale and the living scenery from the old days are attractive. Fourth, the characteristic of the Uemachi plateau and the characteristic of the history are lost. Fifth, in the industrial area which spreads to the estuary part and on the sea, the new viewpoint places such as the tall building and the ship appear and the seaside becomes a valuable viewpoint place.
