I went to "KITTE Osaka," which opened on July 31, 2024. It is located inside "JP Tower Osaka," a large complex directly connected to Osaka Station, built on the site of the former Osaka Central Post Office building. It has floors from the basement to the 6th floor, and is home to antenna shops, miscellaneous goods, and restaurants from all over Japan, making you feel like you're traveling around Japan while inside the building. This is a facility that you can't miss as a new spot for sightseeing in Osaka!

#OsakaShopping Strategy Help! This time I found the fairy street area 8 minutes walk from Osaka Umeda Station! This is a hipster paradise + food savior! Personal recommendation must-visit good shops: Lumps has a lot of niche treasures, pieces want to take home; yatt from a century-old house renovation, three floors of different styles, drinking coffee to enjoy the sense of history; tagoma clothing vintage style beautiful to explode, know the goods must buy goods Next time you go to Osaka, don't just walk around Umeda. Mark this neighborhood and get your friends together to find the treasure!

That day I went to Umeda My grandson said he wanted to go to Ramen Searching for Ramen Jump out of Shenhu Ramen We decided to try it out. Very satisfied with the meal If you have a chance, you can try it #OsakaItinerary

🥩 Yakiniku Jack Umeda Branch 📍 Osaka, Umeda (10-minute walk from Hankyu Umeda Station) This time, we tried the 🥩 Premium Tongue & Wagyu All-You-Can-Eat Course (6,480 yen), which includes: - Salted Wagyu Short Rib - Salted Wagyu Kalbi - Sukiyaki with Black Wagyu Beef - Seared Wagyu Yukhoe - Assorted Kimchi - Assorted Grilled Vegetables - Wakame and Egg Soup - 3 pieces of Wagyu Beef Sushi - Vanilla Ice Cream and Seasonal Ice Cream The "Beef Tongue Box Platter" served as an appetizer is absolutely luxurious✨️. It features 8 varieties, including green onion rolls and green onion wraps, making for a visually stunning presentation🥰. It's a perfect start for tongue lovers! (Green Onion Tied Tongue, Green Onion Wrapped Tongue, and Green Onion Rolled Tongue are only available as appetizers.) We also added thick-cut tongue, which was juicy and had a satisfying thickness. The texture was tender and easy to chew, making it a delight to eat☺️. Having this as part of an all-you-can-eat menu is truly exciting✨️. Not just tongue, but Wagyu short ribs and Wagyu kalbi are also part of the all-you-can-eat options! The side menu is also extensive, offering dishes like Korean pancakes and bibimbap to enjoy💕. For drinks, there’s an all-you-can-drink option with a wide variety of alcoholic beverages and mocktails to choose from! The newly renovated interior has a more stylish vibe, featuring counter seats, table seating, and private rooms. This time, we enjoyed a private room, allowing us to relax and take our time. The calm atmosphere made it very comfortable🙆♀️. This is a popular spot that’s always fully booked, so reservations are highly recommended! . . . . 📌 Address: 3F, MK Beetle Building, 2-11 Doyama-cho, Kita-ku, Osaka-shi, Osaka ⏱ Hours: Weekdays & Day Before Holidays 16:00-0:00 / Weekends & Holidays 12:00-0:00 🗓 Closed irregularly . . . .

Located on the 8th floor of LUCUA Osaka, the World Wine Bar by Pieroth is a must-visit spot for wine enthusiasts 🍷. Operated directly by Pieroth Japan, this bar offers a casual way to enjoy wines from around the world, starting from just a single glass. The interior is spacious and exudes a luxurious atmosphere ✨.

#osakaitinerary Osaka is the second biggest city in Japan after Tokyo. That means, when the sun sets over Osaka, the typical city vibe comes alive with an electric energy that’s impossible to ignore. Neon lights flicker to life in a kaleidoscope of colors, casting a glow over bustling streets packed with laughter, sizzling street food, and the rhythmic chatter of izakayas. One of the most happening neighborhoods is Dotonbori, which transform into a sensory overload: giant animated signs tower overhead, music spills out of bars and arcades, and the aroma of takoyaki and grilled meats fills the air. There’s a playful, unpretentious charm to Osaka at night, where strangers become friends over shared plates and locals welcome you with warm, boisterous hospitality. The upper-end neighbourhood would be Umeda region, which is equally well lit though feeling a lil more distant/cold.

#Osaka Shopping Guide Osaka is a shopping paradise, and Shinsaibashi PARCO is a must-visit place for anime fans, where there are many chiikawa and other animation-related products. The adjacent shopping street is a concentration of drugstore cosmetics. It is recommended to shop around because each drugstore has different offers and discounts, so you can find the most cost-effective product. The Umeda area is mainly high-end shopping malls, suitable for finding luxury brands. However, for affordable clothing, I recommend Luck Rack, which has many affordable options and vintage stores. Generally speaking, the prices of GU and UNIQLO are similar to the prices after the special offers in Hong Kong. During the promotion period, the prices can even be as low as half the price in Hong Kong, which is very cost-effective! Whether it's high-end or budget, Osaka has shopping options to suit your needs! 🕰️Business hours: Monday to Sunday: 10:00 - 21:00 📍Address: 8-7 Tsunoda-cho, Kita-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture, Japan

This time, we’re introducing a recommended parfait specialty shop directly connected to Osaka Station, 'Karafuneya CAFE'! The interior is spacious, and you can also enjoy a drink bar 🥤. The parfait menu ranges from classic options to unique creations topped with fried items, boasting an impressive variety that truly lives up to its reputation as a parfait specialty shop. With great value for money, a convenient location, and late-night hours, it’s an easy choice for anyone craving something sweet near Osaka Station. Be sure to check it out! 🍦 📍Location: JR Osaka Station Central Court, 3-1-1 Umeda, Kita-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture, 530-0001 🕰️Business Hours: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM

#Osaka Transportation Guide Osaka's Umeda business district is bustling, but the unique little streets hidden around it are hidden gems for filming! If you happen to live near Umeda, or have some free time between transportation changes, be sure to visit these small streets! Before 12 o'clock in the morning, the streets were not yet filled with people, and it was quiet and pleasant. The sunlight shines obliquely on the bricks and tiles of the retro buildings, and every shot taken between the interweaving of light and shadow is a great atmospheric film. Whether it is the literary cafe door, the colorful graffiti wall, or the old streets full of life, they are all perfect backgrounds for taking pictures. You don’t have to look for angles deliberately, just stroll and stop naturally, and you’ll get beautiful photos that will go viral on your social media! Traffic Tips: - Subway: Take the Osaka Metro Midosuji Line, Tanimachi Line, or Yotsubashi Line to Umeda Station. Exit from Exit 9 or 10 and walk 5-10 minutes to the many characteristic streets around the station. Among them, the Midosuji Line connects important areas such as Namba and Tennoji; the Tanimachi Line can directly reach Osaka Castle Park, making transfers convenient. - JR Line: Take the JR Osaka Loop Line to Osaka Station, exit from the North Exit, and walk for about 8 minutes. You will discover small streets and alleys full of surprises along the way. The JR line connects cities such as Kyoto and Kobe, making it suitable for travelers coming from surrounding cities. - Bus: There are several bus stops near Umeda Station where you can take city buses to different areas. If you want to explore more remote and unique streets, you can check the bus timetable. Some routes also allow you to enjoy the scenery along the way in Osaka city. The navigation map has been thoughtfully placed on the last page ❤️ While there are few people, go and unlock these hidden treasure shooting spots around the transportation in the Umeda business district! #JapanOsakaTravel #OsakaUmedaShoppingDistrict #OsakaTravel #OsakaLife

Osaka is really a shopping paradise! It’s simply not enough to reserve a day to stroll from Shinsaibashi to Umeda – it’s recommended to choose between Shinsaibashi and Umeda, and most importantly, close to the subway station! After buying in the morning you can go back to the hotel to drop off the loot and continue the second game in the afternoon. If you will be going to Kyoto, it is recommended to stay at Yodoyabashi because it is the starting station for the Keihan Railway to Kyoto, which is very convenient. 🌟Beforehand Tips: Be sure to make a list! Go to the ones you want to buy the most first, otherwise the hot items in the afternoon will be gone. Focus on two or three locations to shop, don't fly around, otherwise you will be like me, there are still many unbought before leaving🥲 1️⃣ Most importantly❗ Big brand cosmetics are recommended to buy the cheapest when leaving the country at Rishang Duty Free Shop! You can replenish your stock when you enter the country, remember to scan the 95% discount code (search "Play Sunrise" or "Duty Free Shopping Gang" in the mini program), and get 90% off when you spend 6,000 RMB, cheaper than in Japan and get a tax refund. Example: A 90ml bottle of Anni Sunshine only costs a hundred dollars, but 60ml costs 2780 yen in Osaka drugstores. And can be stored on the spot, does not occupy your luggage allowance, no stock to buy in Osaka ~ 2️⃣ Glasses recommended early, ordinary Nikon lenses get the same day, a pair of glasses about 400 RMB, and a second half price discount ~ do not recommend your favorite to talk about Namba Station Owndays, feel a bit pit 😅 I asked him to get high-end lenses even said no, in fact, available ... Shinsaibashi and Umeda have many optical shops have Chinese clerk, not afraid of communication problems. Even if there are only Japanese clerks, it's OK to use translation software to find a patient clerk 3️⃣ buy a lot of cosmeceuticals remember to find the door with Chinese discount sign those stores buy, mostly stated 30,000 yen or more have 95% off. Lightning Avoidance Shinsaibashi Daguo Cosmetics!! ️ Randomly increasing the price checkout will scare, not recommended. Although many people say os drug is cheap, in fact, after the discount + tax refund is almost the same, even less stock. I buy myself according to @Kosme Grand Prize, ihada sleeping mask, Kose makeup setting spray, Shelgam those are hard to find. 4️⃣ Luxury brands If you have a 62-star UnionPay credit card (debit card can not), go to Daimaru Department Store, remember to get the "Journey Global Shopping" discount (95% off + 2% cash back), plus UnionPay's own 2% cash back, equal to help you make up the tax refund fee ~ to scan the promo code to count the cash back❗️ 5️⃣ Buy other brands is the same strategy: large items concentrated in one mall to buy all, do not go around ~ no stock to go to another store. The most wanted to buy must go early, the later the harder to find ~ Umeda Hankyu Department Store brand most complete (with 95% off + tax refund), interested brand recommendations see P3. #OsakaShopping #Osaka Free Trip #Osaka Travel Guide #Osaka Guide #Osaka Drugstore #Hisaka Duty Free Shop #Japan Must Buy #Shinsaibashi Shopping #Umeda Department Store #Osaka Shopping List #Osaka Shopping Tips

I've been here so many times, the best places to visit in Osaka are really Umeda, and the best places to visit in Umeda must be Hankyu and Lucua. If not buying luxury goods, I would go straight to Lucua, overall going the young fashion route, sports brands, designer brands, local Japanese home wear and cosmetics are available, Hankyu has the basics, even fewer tourists, good shopping experience. Foreigners will be given a 5% discount card directly at checkout, and tax refunds are quick on the fourth floor. I remember Lucua has two buildings, Lucua main building and Lucua 1100, I like 1100 more, much better to stroll, 10th floor restaurant choice and more. Lululemon can be refunded directly, mont-bell is not tax-free as usual but the variety is complete and full, and the Chinese clerk is very friendly. A.P.C. and Barbour models are quite a lot, Polo Ralph Lauren is quite large, the price is probably about 70% off domestically. Disney, Sanrio, Tom & Jerry have them, and those new soft and cute puff series from Dongdi can be found here. There is an Isetan Closet collection on the fourth floor of Lucua 1100, with Akira Minagawa, Auralee, YAECA, etc. Although there are not many models from each brand, the selection is really beautiful. Next to the vintage shop Raum is worth recommending, I think it is the best vintage shop I have strolled in Japan. Pathfinder's rainbow latte art latte is a latte art champion shop. Diptyque price is about 2/3 domestic, full 15,000 yen free Christmas limited sapin candle, and many small samples. Other Japanese beauty brands, beams, plage, iena, etc. can be bought, walking super happy ~ If you want to buy luxury goods, go straight to Hankyu, basically all brands have them. LV stock a lot, Chanel to get a ticket in line, the number of people in the store is controlled quite strictly, during peak periods to wait for more than an hour, you can first get a ticket to shop other, and then wait for Email notification back. Other Japanese designer brands I instead think the Lucua selection is even better. Hankyu also has a 5% coupon, however the first tier luxury license does not apply. The biggest drawback is that too many people get tax refunds, and you really need to allow a little more time to get it done. Both shopping malls have official Chinese websites, you can check the store list in advance. #OsakaShopping #JapanShopping #OsakaFree #UmedaShopping #LucuaMustShop #HankyuDepartmentStore #JapanMustBuy #ShoppingSlide #OsakaShopping Strategy

#大坂交通攻略 Umeda Station is the transportation center of northern Osaka, bringing together multiple lines of JR, Hankyu, Hanshin and subway. From Umeda, you can quickly travel to major cities in Kansai such as Kyoto and Kobe by taking the JR line. Umeda Station has a large underground shopping mall and department store, which perfectly combines transportation and shopping. The Midosuji Subway Line connects Namba and Tennoji, providing convenient transportation. If you plan to go to Osaka Castle, it is about 15 minutes by taking the Tanimachi Subway Line from Umeda.

It is recommended to use ICOCA card or travel card, which is convenient for taking various modes of transportation.

Yakiniku Gorichan ✔️ Business hours: 5:00 PM ~ 7:00 AM ✔️ Google rating: 4.9 ✔️ Reservations available I visited this place with a friend who doesn't eat beef very well, so I carefully chose a restaurant with high Google ratings and great reviews on YouTube. Luckily, Yakiniku Gorichan offers not only beef but also pork and other types of meat, so we could enjoy the meal together without any issues. When you visit Yakiniku Gorichan, make sure to order the pickled green onion salad as a side dish. Since beef can be a bit greasy, this dish helps balance the flavors. Orders are placed through the LINE app, so be sure to download it in advance!

🇹🇭 Tastier than the local Thai food..? Thai Select in Osaka Umeda ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Koh Samui by Chedi Luang’ ‘Thai Select Premium’ certified restaurant recognized by the Thai Ministry of Commerce! I knew why it was certified after eating it myself✨ 📍 HERBIS PLAZA ENT 3rd floor (near Nishi Umeda Station) 🕐 11:30-22:30 (Open 30 minutes longer on public holidays) The dishes made with Thai ingredients were carefully plated one by one, and there were various desserts, so it was fun to choose🥥🥭 In particular, the taste was so similar to what I had eaten there that I felt like I was in Thailand for a moment even while traveling🇹🇭 If you’re looking for real Thai food in Japan, there’s no better place than here… Seriously! #Osaka travel #Umeda #travel plan #overseas travel #Japan travel #Umeda restaurant #Thai food #Osaka restaurant

Osaka! Now that you are here, you can book off all kinds of used shops! You must go shopping. This gashapon machine shop is said to be the one with the most in Osaka. It has two floors. It is said that there are 2,400 gashapon machines in total... I was dazzled by the selection. It is a favorite of children and old friends! It is just across from Umeda Loft. It is very easy to find. You can go and have a look if you pass by.

Hidden away in the bustling business district of Umeda, Osaka, "Yugiri Soba Hyotei" is a Michelin-rated restaurant that combines traditional soba noodle craftsmanship with modern creativity. The store address is located at 3-2-123 Inoget Osaka 4F Ballica 03, Umeda, Kita-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture. It is only a 4-minute walk from Kita-Shinchi Station on the JR Tozai Line, and the transportation is extremely convenient. Three must-eat highlights 1. Soba noodles with yuzu and egg yolk sauce The store's signature sauce is based on yuzu juice, mixed with fresh raw egg yolks, and then wrapped around the hand-stretched soba noodles. It has a rich and layered taste with sour, sweet and mellow flavors, and is truly a must-try. 2. Tempura platter The fried food is crispy and not greasy, and contains seasonal vegetables and two large shrimps. It is paired with a special dipping sauce and is the perfect partner for soba noodles. 3. Half-cooked Egg Set Inspired by the classic breakfast of Kyoto's three-Michelin-star restaurant Hyotei, the dish features a runny egg white like solidified fat and a semi-solidified yolk, paired with porridge and side dishes to give you a sense of ritual for a Japanese "pilgrimage-level" breakfast. Dining Experience The restaurant environment combines modern simplicity with Japanese elegance. The open kitchen allows you to watch the chef's exquisite skills in kneading and cutting dough. It is recommended to make reservations in advance to secure a seat, especially during weekend evenings when there is often a queue. The average consumption per person is about 1,500 yen, which is very cost-effective. Business Hours and Transportation • Opening hours: Monday to Friday 11:00-23:00, Saturday 11:00-22:30 • Transportation: 4 minutes walk from Kita-Shinchi Station on the JR Tozai Line, or about 10 minutes walk from Umeda Station on the Subway Midosuji Line. After a busy day of shopping in the Umeda business district, why not come here to enjoy a bowl of soba noodles that subverts tradition and let your taste buds be intoxicated by the aroma of grapefruit and wheat. #AprilGoodDestinations2025

"Tuna Man" hidden in the basement of Osaka Station is a pilgrimage site for seafood donburi lovers. The store is located at B2F, 1-3-1 Umeda, Kita-ku, Osaka-shi, Osaka Prefecture, Osaka Station, Osaka Ekimae 1st Building. It is directly connected to the underground street from the Central Exit of JR Osaka Station and is only a 3-minute walk away. Both commuters and tourists can seamlessly connect to their food tour. Bluefin Tuna Trio The store's treasure "The Best Three Types of Sashimi" includes the naked body, middle abdomen, and large abdomen. The fat streaks of the big belly are like those of marinated beef, and it melts in your mouth; the red meat conquers your taste buds with its sweetness, and is paired with freshly ground wasabi and special soy sauce, creating a burst of layers of flavor. Hidden way to eat: Tea-soaked rice variations When one third of the seafood bowl is left, ask the waiter to add brown rice tea and it will instantly turn into seafood tea rice. As the tom yum blends with the soup, the freshness of the tuna and sea urchin is stimulated again, creating the ultimate ending. • The lunch set includes appetizers, seafood bowl, and miso soup for only 1,500 yen, which is more cost-effective than similar stores; Take a break from the busy Umeda business district, treat yourself to a bowl of seafood donburi, and let the fat of the bluefin tuna melt on your tongue. This is the right way to experience Osaka. #Osaka Food Guide

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Walking into Meibei Park is like entering an art world full of surprises. Creativity and inspiration are on display in every corner here, and the colorful art installations sparkle in the sun, attracting the attention of every visitor. Tall sculptures and small installations are intertwined, making people want to explore more. Walking along the paths in the park, I could hear the sound of breeze blowing through the leaves, and felt an incomparable peace in my heart. Those unique works of art are not only a visual enjoyment, but also trigger my thinking about life and nature. Each work tells its own story and makes people fall into contemplation. I wandered around the park randomly and found several surprising corners. Next to a small sculpture, several art lovers are taking photos and sharing their inspiration and creativity. This kind of interaction made me feel the power of art. It not only connects people emotionally, but also allows us to appreciate the beauty of life together. The artistic atmosphere of Meibei Park makes me linger. It is not only a place to relax, but also a space to inspire inspiration. Every time I visit, I gain different feelings and inspirations, which makes me cherish this encounter with art even more. Opening hours: 6:00 - 21:00 daily Transportation: Take the subway to Umeda Station and walk for about 10 minutes Approximate cost: Free admission Reminder: There are many art installations in the park, remember to take more photos Safety precautions: Keep the environment clean and pay attention to the safety of your own property

#OsakaStrategy During cherry blossom season, you can enjoy the cherry blossoms at night at Tenmabashi, or take a pleasure boat to view them from the river. See the familiar signs at Dotonbori, and Ebisu Bridge is filled with customers from all over the world. Enjoy Osaka's specialty at Kushikatsu Daruma. Thanks to the cabbage to cleanse your palate, you can eat as many as you want, and it's delicious. Robots are patrolling the Umeda department stores. The staff are smooth in handling the tax-free procedures. At Umeda Hankyu, there is a large dedicated counter in the basement where they will serve you in Chinese, and everyone is very kind. Osaka is fun!

I enjoyed a salad lunch at "Koko Head cafe OSAKA" in Umeda. This popular cafe from Honolulu, Hawaii has opened its first store in the Kansai region, and the interior is bright and open. The lunch plate is a well-balanced set of the main skillet dish, green salad, soup of the day, chef's whimsical Hawaiian side dish, panna cotta, and a choice of mocktail. The salad is full of fresh seasonal vegetables and goes perfectly with the dressing. It was a healthy but satisfying lunch. #0yentravel #asiatravel #domestictravel

I visited "Kougaryu," located in the food court on the first floor of HEP NAVIO 🐙 I simply ordered takoyaki with sauce.
