【Osaka】A 2-day trip with friends!

Sharing the itinerary of my 2-day Osaka trip in the summer of 2024! This time, I traveled with a friend from Tokyo to Osaka by Shinkansen 🚄. It's a whirlwind plan, so I hope it can serve as a reference for your weekend outings ☺️. 【Day 1】 📍Tokyo Station ↓ 📍Shin-Osaka Station The Shinkansen ride took about 2.5 hours. ↓ 📍Universal Studios Japan We came here mainly for attractions like Mario and Harry Potter! ↓ 📍Dotonbori Took a photo with the iconic Glico sign 🤳. ↓ 📍Check-in 🏨 Toyoko INN Osaka Tenjinbashi-suji Rokuchome 【Day 2】 📍Tenmabashi-suji Shopping Street A very long and famous shopping street in Osaka! Packed with local shops, it's perfect for food strolling! ↓ 📍Osaka Castle Walked to Osaka Castle. ↓ 📍Umeda Explored shops and souvenirs. ↓ 📍Shin-Osaka Station ↓ 📍Tokyo The Osaka trip flew by in no time. Although it's quite a distance from Tokyo, two days are enough to fully enjoy it! 💰Cost per person: Around 30,000 yen 💞Recommended reasons: A city where you can enjoy gourmet food, history, amusement, and shopping all in one place.
