Osaka City🇯🇵

🌸✨ Osaka Japan Travel Review: A city cuter than you think, tastier than you dreamed of, and warmer than you hoped for ✨🌸 If you're looking for a trip that combines cuteness, chill, deliciousness, and feeling like you're in an anime... I recommend that you pin "Osaka". This city is not as famous as Tokyo in the eyes of many people, but for us... Osaka is "my second home". 🥹🍡 As soon as you step foot into Kansai Airport, you know that... This trip is definitely not ordinary. The train goes into the city easily, conveniently, and very fast. That you almost don't have to think about anything. When you arrive in the city, the smell of delicious food, the twinkling lights, and the soft laughter of tourists around you will make you smile before you can even do anything. 🎏 ⸻ 🍜 Dotonbori: A street where the word "full" does not exist in the dictionary Don't miss it! This is a dreamland for true foodies~ Walk straight into the Dotonbori area and you will see a giant Glico sign where people line up to take pictures all day. Anyone who comes here must pose with their arms spread out and run like the great athletes in the advertisement. It has become a tradition. 😆 There are many restaurants on both sides of the road! Starting from takoyaki that when you push it into your mouth, you will exclaim “Yummy~” without any explanation. Then there is okonomiyaki that is served on a sizzling hot plate. The aroma makes us melt. Eat and smile until you forget about gaining weight. 🍳💕 That's not all... There are also ramen shops, cat cafes, beef bowl shops, yakiniku shops, and cute dessert shops that can only be found in Japan. You can walk and eat all day. There is no time to look at calories. 🧁🐾 ⸻ ⛩ Osaka Castle: A hidden tranquility in the heart of the city After you are full, you want to walk to digest. I recommend going to “Osaka Castle,” a classic landmark that everyone must visit. The white and gold castle stands out in the middle of a large garden, surrounded by colorful trees. Especially during the changing leaves or cherry blossom season… Oh, I want to freeze time right there. 🍂🌸 The view from the top of the castle is so beautiful. You can see Osaka City in all directions. The atmosphere is shady. There are people sitting and playing, walking their dogs, and reading books. It's so heartwarming. It's like stopping everything for a moment and taking a deep breath and saying, "Life is so good." 🧺📖 ⸻ 🎢 Universal Studios Japan: The land where dreams come true If you're a fan of Mario, Harry Potter, Minions, or any cute cartoon characters, you definitely can't miss USJ! From the moment you walk in, it's like you're sucked into a fantasy world~ New York-style buildings, colorful dessert shops, and characters walking around. It makes your heart beat like a little kid. 💫🎠 We also went into the Super Nintendo World zone! Oh my, it's so good!!! There are mushroom boxes to jump on, sound effects, and characters floating all over the place. The queue was long but my heart was full 🎮🍄 The Harry Potter zone was also magnificent, like entering the real Hogwarts. There was a broom shop, candy, and Butterbeer that was so sweet and cold~ Then we got to try the highlight rides that were so exciting that we almost cried. Let me tell you, we waited in line for almost an hour, but it was worth every second! 🧙♂️✨ ⸻ 🧸 Shopping at Shinsaibashi: Your bag will be torn but your hands will be full! A must for cute shopping lovers! Shinsaibashi is a fashion and cute street that you won't want to leave. There are so many cute shops from Japanese cosmetics, fashion clothes, trinkets, cute themed cafes to retro toy shops 🎀🛍 Walking into a 3Coins or Daiso store is the end of it! I want to buy everything to take back to Thailand. Props to decorate the room, glasses, baskets with little bear designs, soft pillows It's so cute that I can't choose. And what I like the most is that the seller is very kind. Smiling a lot, giving advice without pressure 🧃🌼 ⸻ 🥢 Osaka food... not only delicious, but happy with every bite Let me tell you that Osaka's food is another level of deliciousness~ Whether it's: • Takoyaki, crispy outside, oozing inside, with lots of squid and sweet, well-rounded sauce • Okonomiyaki, with lots of oozing cheese, shredded dried fish dancing on top of the dessert in an artistic way • Ichiran ramen, which you have to sit and eat in a private booth, giving a mysterious feel but the deliciousness is very clear • Japanese cafe, selling green tea, matcha, latte, ooong-ing cake, mochi with cream, just taking pictures is worth it 💚 Even the snacks from convenience stores are incredibly delicious, egg pudding Small cups of ice cream, dorayaki, or various flavors of KitKat Everything is Japanese sweets that I wish there were some in Thailand. 🍮🍵 ⸻ 🚃 Traveling in Osaka: Unbelievably convenient I have to say that Osaka is lovely even when it comes to transportation. The trains are always on time, with clear English. You won't get lost or stressed. Japanese people are also very lovely. Even though they don't speak much English, they will help you with all their heart. 🗺️💕 IC cards like ICOCA can be used almost everywhere. Just tap anywhere and walk around leisurely ~ You don't have to buy tickets at every station. Just have Google Maps ready. We can go to every corner of Osaka comfortably. ☁️ ⸻ 🌷 Summary of feelings in my heart: Osaka is a smile that I can keep forever. This Osaka trip wasn't just about traveling, but it was about good feelings that I received with all my heart. The atmosphere was warm, the people were kind, the food was delicious, cute photo spots, and the moments that made me feel like "Oh... sometimes it doesn't have to be over the top or fancy. Just be sincere and my heart will be full." Before returning to Thailand, there was a small moment when I sat alone on the side of the train. Looking at the falling leaves lightly, I feel like stopping everything right there. I don't want to rush back. I want to stay a little longer... Osaka has already won my heart. 🥺💛 For those who are hesitating whether to come to Osaka or not... I will answer without thinking, "Come. You will fall in love without realizing it." ⸻ #TravelAbroad #Osaka
