With old temples, cute cafes, chic shopping districts, and a theme park that makes your heart beat faster. 💖 For those who are already in love with Japan, Osaka will definitely become another place in your heart. ⸻ 🌸 Starting at Shinsaibashi 🌸 As soon as we arrived in Osaka, we went straight to Shinsaibashi-suji Shopping Street! This long street is a true shopper's paradise. 🛍️ There are fashionable clothes from Japan and abroad, cosmetics at great prices, cute stationery shops, shoe shops, sweet shops, and 100 yen shops. Where you can shop until you drop, and each shop is decorated in a stylish way. Take pictures from any angle and you will look stylish. ⸻ 🍜 Dotonbori, a lively eating and drinking district 🍜 Just a short walk from Shinsaibashi, you will arrive at Dotonbori. This is an Osaka landmark that everyone must stop by! The famous Glico sign is a popular photo spot where people queue up to pose for fun. 💃 The food in Dotonbori is truly a foodie's paradise. Hot takoyaki from a famous restaurant, crispy fried kushikatsu skewers, fragrant grilled crab meat, sprinkled with salted fish eggs, and ramen from Ichiran that is so delicious that you will have to slurp it up and forget to be shy. ⸻ 🎡 Universal Studios Japan 🎢 This is definitely the highlight of the trip!! 💥 USJ is a theme park that movie lovers, cartoon lovers or those who want to fulfill their childhood dreams must not miss. The must-see ride is The Flying Dinosaur that made us scream at the top of our lungs. (But so much fun!), Harry Potter Zone It's like you've really stepped into Hogwarts. Walking around Hogsmeade with a cold Butterbeer is a dream come true 🧙 And don't forget the super cute Minion Park in bright yellow tones Take a photo with the giant Minions, be amazed by the awesome show And the souvenir shop where everything is so cute you'll want to buy them all 🥰 ⸻ ⛩️ Shitennoji Temple - Peace in the heart of the city ⛩️ After the fun chaos, let's take you into a calm mode. Shitennoji Temple is the oldest Buddhist temple in Japan. The atmosphere is quiet, with a prominent red wooden pagoda, surrounded by a garden and pond with koi fish swimming around. It's perfect for walking Taking pictures or just taking a break from the big city ❤️ ⸻ 🎏 Amerikamura District - Super hip 🎏 Now let's move on to Osaka's youth fashion zone, Amerikamura Or as it's called "Amemura", is an area full of street clothing stores, hip cafes And the ever-changing graffiti art 🎨 The cafes here are decorated uniquely, such as a shop that serves animal-shaped bread or a shop decorated like a laboratory. Have fun walking around and looking at the fashion of Japanese teenagers who are all dressed up, making you feel like you're walking into an indie movie! ⸻ 🍙 Cute cafes & delicious Japanese sweets 🍡 In Osaka, there are many cute cafes to choose from, such as a cat-shaped pancake shop, a princess-themed cafe, or a green tea shop that serves fresh, hot mochi. The aroma is so good it'll melt your heart 😍 We recommend "Gram Pancakes", where the pancakes are served in 3 layers. The large plate is soft and melts in your mouth. Or if you like green tea, you have to go to "Ujicha Gion Tsujiri", which has a menu of rich matcha ice cream. The combination with the fragrant crumble is truly awesome. 💚 ⸻ 🚆 Transportation & Convenience 🚶 Getting around Osaka is super easy! Use the Osaka Metro or an IC card like ICOCA, which is super convenient. The train and subway stations have English signs and the staff are friendly. (Plus, there are super cool automatic ticket machines.) We really like the cleanliness and neatness of Japan's transportation system. Osaka is also easy to get to Kyoto or Kobe. If you have extra time, you can plan a trip to 2-3 cities without getting tired. ⸻ 🧸 Cute souvenirs to buy and take home 🎁 We can't not mention it! There are so many souvenirs to choose from in Osaka. Especially snacks from Pablo, a famous cheese tart shop that you can't get enough of when you take them back to Thailand. Or there are special Japanese snacks that can only be bought here. Such as Osaka strawberry flavor Pocky or KitKat with strong green tea flavor. There are also trinkets such as key chains, pens, mini dolls from USJ, or Japanese souvenirs such as beautiful fans or traditional Japanese cloth bags. ⸻ 🎀 Summary of Osaka's cuteness 🎀 Osaka is a cute city with its own fun and charm.
