Amerikamura, or "American Village", is a small entertainment area of Minami in Osaka,Japan.

Amerikamura is identifiable by the small scale Statue of Liberty which peers down on the streets. It is a well-known haunt of resident expatriate Westerners (known as "gaijin" in Japanese), and centres on Triangle Park, a concreted rest area surrounded by bars and nightclubs, many of which are run by Westerners.
