When it comes to Osaka, you can’t miss the Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi areas! This place is not only a must-visit destination for tourists, but also a super battlefield for food, shopping, and entertainment. From the super delicious Okonomiyaki and Takoyaki to a whole row of drug stores and trendy brand stores, you can really spend a whole day shopping here without getting bored. Dotonbori - Food Paradise & Even More Beautiful Sightseeing Canal at Night The most famous thing about Dotonbori is the canal, which is full of neon lights on both sides. It is very atmospheric at night! The classic landmarks such as the Glico Runner and the giant crab sign are must-photograph spots when visiting Osaka. In addition to eating and shopping here, you can also take a sightseeing boat, sit on the boat and glide along the canal while enjoying the bustling night view of Dotonbori. It feels particularly comfortable! Shinsaibashi - a paradise for shopaholics, with so many drugstores! If you want to go on a shopping spree, just walk to the Shinsaibashi-suji Shopping Street next door! This is one of the busiest shopping areas in Osaka. It has everything from affordable drugstores to high-end brands, and there are so many drugstores. The discounts at each store may be different. I really recommend visiting a few more stores, you might be able to find a cheaper price! Moreover, most of the store staff can speak Chinese, so communication is no problem at all, and shopping is super convenient~ The drugstore here really has everything, such as health products, facial masks, makeup, skin care products, and even daily necessities and snacks. If you're looking for cheap facial masks, steam eye masks, cooling patches, and other souvenirs, this is a really good deal. In addition, there is the UNIQLO global flagship store, GU, ABC-MART shoe stores, and 100-yen store Daiso in this area. If you want to buy clothes or shoes, you can also find many great value options! In short, you can eat delicious food, buy good things, and experience sightseeing all at once here! Dotonbori & Shinsaibashi are definitely the places in Osaka that are most worth spending time in. It is recommended to plan at least half a day to a whole day here. You can go shopping and buy cosmetics during the day, take a boat to see the night view at night, and have a plate of Okonomiyaki for dinner, and the trip will be perfect! If you come to Osaka, you must include this place in your itinerary and be prepared to bring back a lot of spoils! #Shinsaibashi #Near Shinsaibashi #Shinsaibashisuji Shopping Street #Shinsaibashi Business District #Shinsaibashi Food #Shinsaibashisuji #Shinsaibashi Business District #Shinsaibashi Shopping Street #Japan Shinsaibashi #Osaka Shinsaibashi #Osaka #Dotonbori #Dotonbori Tourism #Dotonbori Gurukine #Dotonbori Gurukine #Dotonbori River #Dotonbori Guru #Dotonbori Night View #Dotonbori Water Sightseeing Boat #Dotonbori Shopping Street #Dotonbori Must Eat

#Osaka Food Guide A 1-minute walk from Osaka Yotsubashi Station, there is a sukiyaki restaurant where you can taste domestic wagyu beef for 100 yuan. The store is spacious with an open kitchen in the center. The chefs cut the meat slices freshly and the clean and tidy operating environment makes people feel at ease. Both sukiyaki and shabu-shabu are available here. The domestic beef and pork set meal is affordable, and you can enjoy a rich meat feast for just over 100 yuan. The meat slices for shabu-shabu are as thin as cicada wings. They can be eaten after being lightly boiled in boiling water for 3 seconds. The soft and juicy taste requires almost no chewing; the sukiyaki soup is moderately sweet and salty, and the beef wrapped in egg liquid is paired with onions soaked in sauce, which is a perfect match when poured on hot rice - the store also provides free refills, so diners with big appetites can also enjoy it. The most surprising thing is the hidden charging port next to the dining table, which considerately solves the battery life anxiety of mobile phone users. This restaurant has no gimmicks, but wins with freshly cut meat and simple cooking methods. Whether dining alone or with friends, you can enjoy a cost-effective Wagyu feast here. If you want to taste high-quality beef at an affordable price in Osaka, this small restaurant near the station is definitely worth adding to your itinerary.

#大坂美食攻略 After years of searching for food in Osaka, the taste of this izakaya "Sushi Ten ぷら 明" is still unforgettable. Although the service experience is not delicate and considerate, it has become a taste bud station worth visiting twice with its excellent cooking standards. The per capita consumption is about 208 yuan, which is quite sincere in the Namba business district. The signature Ten ぷら noodles in the store are as light as feathers, and the golden and crispy outer layer is wrapped with plump shrimps and seasonal vegetables. When you bite it, the heat and juice bloom in your mouth, and the greasy feeling is handled very well. The sushi plate is known for its freshness. The vinegar rice has just the right acidity, supporting the plump salmon belly and the transparent tuna belly. The fish meat melts in your mouth, and the sea flavor spreads layer by layer on the tip of your tongue. The squid and sea bream in the sashimi platter are particularly amazing, with a springy texture accompanied by the sweetness of the sea water, which makes people can't help but order more. The store is located in Sennichimae, Chuo-ku, about a 5-minute walk from Namba and Shinsaibashi stations. It is open until 22:30, which is very suitable for dinner. If you want to experience the authentic Kansai izakaya style, you can try the combination of grilled food and shochu - the grilled chicken cartilage has a charred aroma, which is perfect for drinking. Although the service is a bit casual, it is still worthy of being listed as a "powerful player" on the Osaka food list with the original taste of the ingredients and the cooking skills.

#Osaka Food Guide When you walk into the alleys of Shinsaibashi, Namba, you can always smell the tempting aroma of oil - from the old man who is frying shrimps slowly on the corner. The golden tempura in the iron pan flips in the oil, and the batter is as light as a butterfly wing. The crispy sound accompanied by the steaming juice when you bite it, without any greasy feeling, is the soul of Japanese tempura. The must-order "Pork Cheese Roll" is a delicacy on earth: thinly sliced ​​pork is wrapped with rich cheese, fried at high temperature, the outer layer is burnt and fragrant, and the cheese inside is pulled apart, and the salty fragrance bursts on the tip of the tongue. The "Red Prawn" is the treasure of the town. The shrimp meat is chewy and full, the batter is as thin as a cicada's wing, and even the shrimp head is fried crispy and edible. The sashimi platter (salmon, tuna, sea bream, squid) is full of freshness, and the fat of the wagyu roasted meat is evenly distributed and melts in the mouth. Although the price is slightly higher, it is worth it. The most surprising thing is the "half-cooked egg". The golden egg liquid flows out like a waterfall when the eggshell is cut open. Remember to take a tissue to protect yourself. The deliciousness of this "egg assassin" is worth tasting carefully! For first-time visitors, it is recommended to order the "Mori Gowasese" set meal, which contains seven classic fried foods (there is also a deluxe version of 15 kinds), and add red prawns and pork cheese rolls. It is only a five to six minute walk from Namba Station and Shinsaibashi Station. It is especially suitable for travelers who are new to Japan and tired of convenience stores. The warm taste of the grandfather's insistence on traditional craftsmanship is the most touching temperature of Osaka cuisine.

The Osaka Metro Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi Line, marked by its refreshing water-blue color, spans east to west across Osaka, connecting Taisho Station in Taisho Ward to Kadoma-minami Station in Tsurumi Ward.

Pay close attention to station designs, such as the streamlined ceiling and blue light bands at Kadoma-minami Station, which reflect the theme of futuristic transportation. Tech enthusiasts can particularly note the unique structure of the tracks and wheels. The water-blue Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi Line is not just a daily commute route but a flowing exhibition redefining Osaka’s greenery and art. From the bustling fashion of Shinsaibashi, the riverside tranquility of Kyobashi, to the floral feast at Tsurumi-ryokuchi, this line weaves a multidimensional map of urban ecology and culture.

#Osaka Itinerary 🌳First stop: Osaka Castle Park, a spring special that travels through time and space The vermilion eaves of the castle tower are surrounded by Somei Yoshino trees, making it a poem! Broken cherry blossoms float in the waves of the moat, and the weeping cherry blossoms beside the stone steps cascade down like a waterfall. A girl in Hanfu stands under the cherry blossom arch, her sleeves trembling with the petals~ Climbing up the five-story castle tower, overlooking the entire city submerged in a sea of ​​pink and white flowers, with buildings and ancient city walls in the distance, it feels like walking into the illustrations of "The Tale of Genji"🌺 ✨Hidden way to play: Rent a samurai/shrine maiden costume (there are rental points in the park), take photos at Sakura Gate or Sannomaru Square, and the light and shadow shine through the branches on the brocade patterns, and every frame is as moving as Ukiyo-e. Remember to walk around to the Nishinomaru Gardens. The dry landscape garden with green moss on the ground is a perfect match with the late-blooming weeping cherry trees. It is so quiet that you can hear the sound of petals falling. 🌃Second stop: Shinsaibashi, the night-time stage with boiling neon lights Switching from the ancient and leisurely to the modern trend is just a few subway stops away! After the sun sets, the neon signs of Shinsaibashi light up one after another - the giant Glico runner leaps on the skyline, the big crab sign of Kani Doraku shines with an attractive golden light, the cruise ship on the Dotonbori Canal passes by with laughter, and the water reflects the lights of the whole city, like a flowing kaleidoscope🌇 🍜Taste adventure: squeeze into the izakaya in Shinsaibashi Yokocho, order a plate of "dancing takoyaki" (remember to add secret soy sauce and aonori), with a glass of iced draft beer, and watch the chef skillfully flip the hot grilled food on the iron plate; turn the corner and see the long queue of strawberry daifuku, glutinous rice skin wrapped with freshly whipped cream and fresh berries, the sweet but not greasy feeling of happiness is instantly full! 📌Practical Tips: ✅Osaka Castle Park ticket price is 600 yen. During the cherry blossom season, it is recommended to enter the park before 9 o'clock to avoid the crowds. ✅Shinsaibashi drugstore opens at 10am, you can buy drugstores and snacks at Matsumoto Kiyoshi/Don Quixote ✅Combined tour route: Cherry blossom viewing in the morning → Eat Taiyaki at the "Mori-no-Teahouse" in the park at noon → Visit Shinsaibashi in the afternoon → See the night view of Dotonbori in the evening From the cherry blossoms and snow in the Edo period to the bright lights of the Heisei era, Osaka has always found a wonderful balance between history and modernity. If you also want to embrace the "quiet ancient style" and "passionate city" at the same time, this two-city route can definitely be included in your travel list💫 #OsakaTravel #Osaka Castle Park #Shinsaibashi #Japanese Cherry Blossom Spots #Kansai Free Travel
