Osaka Travel Review: A lovely city, fun to eat, fun to travel, so much fun that your heart will melt 💖🇯🇵 Hello everyone! Today, Boom will take you to Osaka, a colorful city full of fun, delicious food, and authentic Japanese culture. Anyone who visits will definitely fall in love. This trip, Boom went by himself, leisurely, walked around, tasted delicious food, shopped, and took beautiful pictures. Let's share them with you. Ready to get ready to travel with Boom! ⸻ Day 1: Enjoy the lights in Namba and Dotonbori 🍡🎉 After landing at Kansai Airport, we took the train into Osaka. We headed straight to "Namba", a very lively area full of shops, restaurants, and beautiful lights. Dotonbori is the highlight of the first day. It is a street along the river with giant neon signs. And the prominent Glico sign that everyone must come to take a picture with. We walked around looking for snacks like takoyaki, round, fragrant balls fresh from the oven, topped with delicious sauce. When you bite into it, it's so delicious. It's fragrant and fresh. Eating it makes you smile until you almost melt. In addition, there is also soft okonomiyaki with fresh vegetables, shrimp, pork, and eggs. It's so delicious that you have to order it again and again. For dessert, you have to try the soft mochi with sweet red bean filling. Plus, you get to eat rice in a small shop decorated in a cute, authentic Japanese style. It feels great. ⸻ Day 2: Visit Osaka Castle and Sakura Park 🌸🏯 This morning, we went to Osaka Castle, the symbol of this city. The atmosphere around the castle is very beautiful, especially when the cherry blossoms bloom. It's like the world suddenly brightens up! Osaka Castle is very big and magnificent. Inside, there is a small museum that tells the story of Japanese history. We walked up to the top floor to see a 360-degree view of Osaka City. We saw tall buildings and surrounding gardens. We felt very peaceful and impressed. After that, we walked around the garden surrounding the castle and saw the cherry blossoms in full bloom. Seeing Japanese people having picnics, sitting and playing with their families and friends, it feels so warm and romantic. ⸻ Day 3: Having fun at Universal Studios Japan 🎢🎠 If you come to Osaka and don't go to Universal Studios Japan, you'll really miss out! This theme park is a dreamland for all ages. We spent the whole day here, excited with many fun rides. The Harry Potter zone is the best in our hearts. We got to walk around Hogwarts Village, dress up as a wizard, and there was a ride that made us feel like we were flying on a broomstick, like we were really in a magical world. The Super Nintendo World zone was just as fun. There were Mario games and cute, colorful characters. Walking around was so refreshing. There were also Minions and other characters to take pictures with, so cute that it melted our hearts. The atmosphere in the theme park was full of laughter and fun, like being a kid again. ⸻ Day 4: Visit the old city of Nara, feed the deer 🦌🌿 On our last day before going back, we stopped by Nara, which is very close to Osaka. There is Nara Deer Park here. Where deer walk around and ask for food from tourists in a very cute way We bought some sembei snacks for the deer, and the deer came very close. Some of them used their antlers to look at us, as if they were asking for more. They were so cute that our hearts melted. In addition to the deer, we also visited “Todaiji Temple”, which has the largest wooden Buddha statue in Japan, which allowed us to truly experience the peace and faith of the Japanese people. ⸻ Shopping to our hearts’ content with cute things in Osaka 🛍️🎀 Osaka is not only good for food and sightseeing, but it is also a paradise for shoppers. We walked around Shinsaibashi and Americamura, which are full of fashion shops, cosmetics, and many cute things. Buy souvenirs to bring home, including snacks, mochi, Hello Kitty, and cute souvenirs that make you feel like you’ve brought Japan back home with you. ⸻ Tips for a great Osaka trip 📝 •Buy an ICOCA card for easy travel. •Wear comfortable shoes because you’ll be walking a lot. •Don’t forget to try takoyaki, okonomiyaki, and mochi, which are famous local products. •Use Google Maps or Japan Transit Planner to plan your trip. • Taking pictures of neon lights at night at Dotonbori is sooo beautiful! ⸻ Summary of my impressions 💖 Osaka is a city that combines all the cuteness, fun, and authentic Japanese culture in one place. There are delicious food, shopping areas, and beautiful and historical tourist attractions. It feels warm and friendly to all tourists. Boom thinks that if anyone is hesitating where to go in Japan, Osaka is the right answer! I guarantee that you will definitely come back with lots of good memories. 🥰🇯🇵 ⸻ Thank you for reading Boom's review.
