Osaka Trip Osaka travel plan 7 days 6 nights 🌟

Osaka is another major tourist destination in Japan that is just down from Tokyo. This trip was a relaxing trip because we had several days and also got to visit Kyoto for 1 day. If anyone is planning to visit Osaka, like and share this post to save it. Day 1: Arrive in Osaka 📍 Kuromon Market: The first place we headed to was the Kuromon Fish Market. There are a lot of food to choose from, from sushi, freshly sliced ​​sashimi, Tanaba crabs, grilled meat to desserts. I recommend trying a little bit of each shop. Many shops do not have seats. You may have to stop and eat next to them. I do not recommend walking to eat. 📍 Namba Yasaka Shrine: Another sacred place that if you come to Osaka, you must come to pray for blessings is Namba Shrine. Walk from the fish market for about 20 minutes and you will see the shrine with people coming to pray, buy amulets and open fortune sticks for fortune telling. 📍 Shinsaibashi: A walking street with both restaurants and shopping areas. 🏨 On this trip, we chose to stay at Shinsaibashi Grand Osaka Hotel. It is a 5-minute walk to Shinsaibashi. The room is medium-sized and can hold luggage. There are cleaning staffs every day. 💰Average price per person: 1000฿/night Day 2: Kyoto Day Trip (40 minutes by train) 📍Kyoto Nishiki Market: The first place we visited was Nishiki Market, a famous market in Kyoto with a lot of food. And if you are a Snoopy fan, you must not miss the Snoopy Osha shop. There are Snoopy-shaped desserts and products for sale. It's very cute. 📍Kiyomizu dera Temple: Next, we took a bus to Kiyomizu-dera Temple, which took about 20 minutes to walk up. But we stopped at many shops, including Snoopy Chocolate Sumikkogurashi and souvenirs and food. In April, there are quite a lot of people, both tour groups and Japanese people. You can buy tickets at Kiyomizu-dera Temple before entering. There are also amulet shops in the temple. I must say that the view from above is very beautiful. 📍 Ninenzaka Street: After walking around the temple and praying, we walked to Ninenzaka Street, which is the street below Kiyomizu-dera Temple, similar to the one we walked up, but we had to walk diagonally to the left. There will be more street food and shops. This street will have fewer people than the one we walked up. And there is a view of the temple like Hokan-ji Temple. If everyone sees the picture, they will definitely say "Oh!" 📍 Kyoto Bridge: In the evening before going back, stop by to find something to eat and walk along the Kamo River Bridge. The atmosphere is cool and the river flows. People like to sit by the river. Day 3: Osaka Castle - Hep Five - Tsutenkaku - Dotombori - Today is another relaxing day in Osaka. You can put a list of places you want to go to tightly or go shopping as you wish. 📍 Osaka Castle or Osaka Castle, if you don't come, it's like you haven't been to Osaka. Inside, there will be various histories, samurai outfits. If anyone likes this, don't forget to stop by and see. There are many floors in total and on the top floor you can walk out to see the view outside. 📍 Hep Five is a large shopping mall with a Ferris wheel on top. The day we went, there were a lot of people, so we chose to go shopping instead. We got a lot of stuff. There are really ten thousand, both Kiddyland, Uniqlo, Nike. Anyone who wants to shop, go ahead. 📍 Tsutenkaku Another famous street with Tsutenkaku Tower and restaurants, you can have dinner here. Day 4: 📍 Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan: Since we booked a half-day ticket to Universal Studio in the afternoon, we stopped by the Kaiyukan Aquarium in the morning. I have to say that we didn't expect anything, thinking that it would be like the aquariums in Thailand. But when we actually went in, we were mesmerized. The little ones are so cute. Penguins, dolphins, otters, and the highlight here is Mr. Jinbe-san or a very big whale shark. He swims in the middle of the aquarium, where we can walk around 360 degrees. If anyone comes, don't forget to visit the little ones. 📍 Half-day Universal Studio: In the afternoon, we went to Universal Studio. I was so excited. I haven't been to a theme park in a long time. When I went in, I was amazed, especially because there were only my favorite characters like Minions, Harry Potter, Spiderman, and Snoopy. On the first day, we focused on walking around, studying the way, taking pictures, and eating. Stayed until the park closed from 3 pm to 10 pm Day 5: Universal Studio Full Day - Today we bought Express tickets for 4 rides, which was quite worth it because the queues for each ride were quite long. We also got to enter the Mario zone without having to worry. - The zone we stayed in the longest was probably the Harry zone because it felt like we had really entered the magical world. We will make a separate post for Universal Studio. Day 6: Shopping Day Shinsaibashi - Namba Park - On the 6th day, it was the last day we were in Osaka, so we went to eat around Shinsaibashi Street and bought some souvenirs. 📍 Kushikatsudaruma, a fried food skewer shop with an uncle holding a stick and spinning it around. It's very easy to find. The signature menu here is the Iberico pork, which is soft and has fat. It's so delicious, you have to try it. - We waited in line for 1 hour to eat Ichiran Ramen, which I felt was less delicious than the one I used to eat, or maybe it depends on the branch. But if you go, don't forget to try the new recipe, the beef soup. - Another place I'd like to recommend for shoppers is Namba Park. There's a sky garden on top of the building. Go sit and watch the evening view, it's very beautiful. And there's also a Tower Records Loft shop here. Day 7: Rinku Town - Airport 📍Rinku Outlet/ Marble Beach - After checking out from the hotel, we went to leave our luggage at the airport and walked around the Outlet. There are a lot of brand name shops and the prices are cute. Or if anyone wants to stop by to find something to eat before boarding the plane, there's everything here. #VisaFreeTravel #TravelJapan #TravelPlanShare #TravelOsaka #TravelPlanJapan #osaka #japan
