Tennoji is among the main stations on the Midosuji Line that have chandelier-style fixtures with fluorescent lights arranged lengthwise.
From station to station, there are a variety of chandeliers.
Embedded in the ceiling are fluorescent lights that spell out the name of the station, "H-O-M-M-A-C-H-I." As it is the transfer point for many office workers, the station can be quite hectic, but with something as charming as this overhead, you can't help but smile and relax.

The area around Tennoji station includes a zoo, which you do not want to visit if you have even a small compassion for animals, and a park, as well as old, rickety buildings and flophouses used by the city's day labourers.
Often located near major train stations or in shopping arcades, these grungy places are sometimes open 24 hours a day, have the most advanced computer technology you can find, plus contain hundreds, sometimes thousands, of manga comic books for browsing while you are waiting for your printouts.
Despite its appearance, the area around Tennoji, especially to the south, is not that dangerous and the people here are far more down to earth than in other part of the city.
