The retail district of Umeda is located in Kita, while the entertainment area around Dotonbori Bridge with its famous giant mechanical crab, Triangle Park and Amerikamura ("America Village") is in Minami. Minami is also home to the Shinsaibashi and Ebisubashi shopping districts. The central business district, including the courts and major banks, is primarily located in Yodoyabashi and Honmachi, between Kita and Minami. Business districts have also formed around the city's secondary rail terminals, such as Tennoji Station and Kyobashi Station. Osaka is known for bunraku (traditional puppet theatre) and kabuki theatre, and for manzai, a more contemporary form of stand-up comedy.
