Very crowded place but nice, walk along the river banks with many shops and street food. There is a popular landmark on the Dotonbari canal, namely the Glico Man billboard. This sign has illuminated Osaka's shopping and entertainment. I just found out about the history of the name Glico as follows: the man on the Glico Man billboard is Fortunato Catalon, a running champion from the Philippines. In 1919, an entrepreneur named Riichi Ezaki founded Glico under the name Ezaki Glico Co. Ltd. namely the company that produces caramel candies. The name of this company, Glico, comes from the word Glycogen. The first candy produced by this company was Glico caramel candy. The Glico candy logo is a runner athlete in a race towards the finish line as a symbol of a healthy child. The slogan "300 Meters in a Single Piece” is used as an advertisement for Glico candy. One Glico caramel candy contains 16 kcal which is enough energy to run 300 meters. This calculation comes from a person with a height/weight of 165 cm/55 kg who is estimated to burn 8.21 kcal when running 160 m per minute. One Glico candy contains enough calories to run for 1.95 minutes or 300 m. This company installed a very large billboard made of neon lights in Dotonbori, Osaka.
