Osaka🇯🇵

Osaka Travel Review A lovely city that makes your heart beat like when you meet your crush 🏯 When it comes to Japan, many people probably think of Tokyo, full of bright lights, Kyoto, filled with the scent of culture, or Hokkaido, covered in white snow. But for us... Osaka is the answer to the happiness that our hearts are looking for. 💙 Osaka is a city that is not too busy, not too quiet, but just right, making us fall in love and can't stop. This city is full of smiles, cuteness, delicious food, cute cafes, and laughter that just hearing it makes us feel like "Hmm... this is happiness" 🌸✨ ⸻ Namba & Dotonbori - The starting point of happiness with only smiles 🏙️✨ Start your trip at Namba and Dotonbori, which are like the heart of Osaka 💖 When you walk out of the station, the first thing you feel is... Osaka is a very lively city. The smiles of the people, the sounds of talking, the music from the shops And the aroma of delicious food wafts in the wind 🍡 • 🎌 Glico Man Sign – A must-see landmark where everyone must take a photo, raise their arms and pose like a runner on the sign, and smile when they see other people posing the same way 😂 • 🍢 Takoyaki – These round balls filled with chewy squid Crispy outside, soft inside, topped with sweet and salty sauce, sprinkled with dried bonito flakes that move in the wind. It’s like… so delicious you’ll cry 🐙💕 • 🥢 Okonomiyaki – Japanese pizza that may not look neat, but the taste is good for the heart. Crispy, soft dough, sprinkled with oozing mayonnaise, contrasting with the sweet and salty sauce, is the best. 🥰 At night along the Dotonbori Canal, the lights from the billboards reflect on the sparkling water. People walk around and smile at each other. This atmosphere really warms your heart in an indescribable way 🌟 ⸻ Shinsaibashi – The Street of Shopping and Cuteness 🎀🛍️✨ Those who love shopping and cute knickknacks will definitely fall in love with this place 💕 Shinsaibashi Street is lined with shops on both sides. Both famous brands, Japanese-style clothing stores, cosmetic stores, shoe stores To cute knickknack stores that will make your heart flutter 🎒👒 • Stationery stores are heaven for those who love cute things. There are stickers with cat designs, rabbits, bears, notebook bags, Pastel-colored pens that you want to sweep the whole store 🐱🐰🐻 • Walk a little further and you will find a hidden cafe hidden in a small alley. This Japanese-style cafe serves fragrant matcha green tea and soft and smooth cheesecake. Sit and sip tea, watch people walk by, and listen to soft jazz music. It's a feeling that I can't describe. 🍵🍰 ⸻ Osaka Castle - Elegance amidst softness 🍃🏯✨ Osaka Castle is another place that you shouldn't miss. Because this place is not only beautiful, but there is warmth hidden in every corner. 💖 • A white castle with gold trim stands tall in the middle of a green garden. Surrounded by a moat and a long stone bridge to walk across like you've entered the Edo period. 🌳🏯 • We stopped by a convenience store to buy bento and red bean bread and then sat down for a picnic under the trees, watching people walk by, children running around, people walking dogs or cycling, listening to the sound of the wind and birds singing. It feels like a very warm anime. 🧺🍵🐶 • Inside the castle, there is an exhibition about history. Walking around, I secretly imagined myself as a princess in the samurai era. ⸻ Universal Studios Japan – A magical world full of laughter 🎢🪄💛 Who would have thought that Osaka had a magical world hidden in it! USJ (Universal Studios Japan) is a place that makes us feel like kids again. 🎠🎡 • The Harry Potter zone is a dream come true. Walk through Hogsmeade Village with Butterbeer, rub the Hogwarts sign, listen to the owls, and take pictures with the magnificent Hogwarts Castle that will take your breath away. 🪄🦉 • The Minion Park zone is full of yellow and the laughter of minions. The shops are great. Every item is so cute that your heart will melt. 💛😂 • The rides, including the Flying Dinosaur, Hollywood Dream, or even Spiderman, are so much fun that you have to go on them again. You scream without caring about anyone. Really fun to the point of laughing until tears come out 🎢🎡 ⸻ Kuromon Market – Happiness that you can eat 🍤🍡🍓 Kuromon Market is a place where foodies must exclaim, “This is my heaven!” 🥰 • Grilled Wagyu beef, so fragrant that you have to turn around and walk past it. So delicious that you want to hug the vendor 🥩🔥 • Grilled scallops with garlic butter, so big that when you eat them… they bounce in your mouth, sweet, fragrant, and irresistible 🦪🍚 • Toro sushi, so fresh that it feels like it just came out of the sea, melts in your mouth without warning 🍣 • And the highlight in my heart… giant strawberries, so sweet and juicy like you’re eating a pink cloud 🍓☁️ Everything is so delicious that I want to freeze time right here. The vendors are also kind. They also give out free snacks for you to try, so cute that it makes your heart flutter 🥹💖 ⸻ Osaka – A city that makes you realize that “Happiness is as simple as this.” 🌸🍃💖 Osaka is not just a tourist city, but it is a city that allows us to live life without rushing, without competing with anyone. Just walking around, holding takoyaki in hand, watching people smile at each other, eating delicious snacks, listening to the wind, and our hearts can smile without realizing it. Osaka teaches us to understand that… “Happiness doesn’t have to be big, expensive, or perfect.” Just being in a place where our hearts feel safe, comfortable, and can be ourselves… is good enough. 💌✨ Osaka…and we will definitely go back to each other again. 🏯🍡🎒💖 ⸻ #TravelJapan #Osaka
