The name covers the area west of Osaka Metro Shinsaibashi Station, from Nagahori-dori down to Dotonbori. At its center is Sankaku Koen, Triangle Park, where young people hoping to become comedians or musicians perform and flea markets are held. In the Edo period the area was called Sumiya-cho, charcoal dealers' town, because charcoal was brought up the Dotonbori from Osaka Bay and collected there. In the 1970s shops converted from warehouses began selling secondhand clothes and jeans, and used records and goods bought on the American West Coast were sold too, which got people talking. The name Amerikamura, America village, comes from the many shops handling goods and fashion imported from America that opened around the Showa 40s. True to the name, it was said you could meet West Coast American culture there at any time. It is still going as a place for music as well as fashion.", "description_ko": "아메리카무라는 오사카 미나미에서 가장 활기가 넘치고 간사이 젊은이 문화를 이끌어 온 곳이에요. 오사카 메트로 신사이바시역 서쪽, 나가호리도리에서 도톤보리까지 펼쳐진 일대를 가리켜요. 그 중심은 산카쿠 공원(삼각공원)이에요. 여기서는 개그맨과 뮤지션을 꿈꾸는 젊은이들의 퍼포먼스나 벼룩시장이 열려요. 이 부근은 에도 시대에 오사카만에서 도톤보리를 거슬러 숯을 모으던 곳이라 '스미야초(숯가게 마을)'라고 불렸어요. 1970년대에 들어 창고를 개조한 가게에서 구제 옷과 청바지를 팔기 시작했고, 미국 서해안에서 떼어 온 중고 레코드와 잡화도 팔아 화제가 됐어요.
