Osaka🇯🇵

🇯🇵✨ “First time in Osaka, my heart was beating like butterflies were flying in my stomach.” This trip started with the words “I want to go to Japan in a chill way No need to rush, no need to plan tightly.” Then the name “Osaka” jumped into my head immediately. It is a city that has both the excitement of Tokyo, the charm of Kyoto, and delicious food that is second to none. 🍙🍜🎏 So I gathered my courage, booked a ticket to go alone, but my heart was not lonely at all because I intended to capture cute moments to tell everyone about. 🧸 ⸻ 🌸🛬 Day 1: We arrived in Osaka! After a long flight with great anticipation, we finally arrived at Kansai Airport! The air was a little cold but very refreshing. When I took a breath, I felt like a Japanese girl in a series. ☁️💭 We took the train into the city and chose to stay near Shinsaibashi because it was convenient to walk to Dotonbori. After packing up, I didn’t hesitate! Let's go find the legendary "Glico sign"~ Run and take a picture with your arms raised and posing in the same pose as the sign and then jump up and down happily "I'm really in Japan!!" On the way along the Dotonbori canal, I smelled the fragrant takoyaki I didn't hesitate and immediately joined the line. 🐙 Hot and crispy on the outside, soft and melting on the inside, like having a party in your mouth. 🍢 ⸻ 🎢🌟 Day 2: Dream Day - USJ~ Here we come! Woke up very early without an alarm clock because today we were going to Universal Studios Japan 💥👒 I have to say that this was the highlight of the trip. And we were 10 out of 10 excited, no deductions! When we entered the Wizarding World of Harry Potter zone, tears were flowing. The fragrant butter beer floated in, along with the cheers from Hogwarts fans. 🧙♂️ The Forbidden Journey ride was so much fun that I wanted to play it again. Stop by to buy a magic wand to play with when stressed 555 Then go to the most anticipated zone in life, Super Nintendo World 🎮🍄 It's a real-life Mario world. We hit blocks and shouted "It's me! Mario!" without any shame. The staff uniforms are also cute like the NPCs in the game. In the afternoon, we played Mario Kart, which is like riding a race car in a virtual world. It was so much fun that my head dizzy but I couldn't stop smiling 😊💫 Before going back, I bought a Yoshi hat to wear and walk around the park. Everyone who passed by smiled at me. Some even asked to take a picture with me. Oh my, it was so cute. ⸻ 🧸🍵 Day 3: A relaxing day, lightly recharging my spirits After a hard day yesterday, today I'm going to be a sweet cafe girl~ Start the day by walking around Osaka Castle, a large and majestic castle amidst a garden of yellow and red leaves changing colors. 🍁🕊️ Walking around, I found an old Japanese sweet shop on the side of the road. Stopped by to try the fragrant red bean-filled mochi. Paired with hot tea is so good for the heart 🍵✨ In the afternoon, take the train to Nakazakicho area, there are so many cafes~ There are vintage, minimalist, Japanese cafes, and even cat cafes! We chose a cafe decorated with dolls and old books. The atmosphere is like being in the movie “Your Name” 🩷 The most impressive thing is the cloud-shaped cake! Fluffy, soft It melts when you bite it and smile until your cheeks break 🍰☁️ ⸻ 👜🧸 Day 4: Unlimited shopping! Osaka is a city that is perfect for walking around without a destination. Today, we walked from Shinsaibashi to Namba, passing by cute shops. If you like small items, you will definitely love Daiso, CanDo, and Donki like us! Another secret spot is Orange Street, a fashion street with cute handmade shops and home decorations. We found a cloth bag embroidered with Japanese cats. And buy a hand-drawn postcard to send to yourself in the future 🐾 In the evening, stop by Shinsekai, walk around the view of Tsutenkaku Tower, and eat kushikatsu skewers with shared sauce 🍢 But there is a rule that you can only dip it in the sauce once, you can't dip it again! (It's very strict 555) The nighttime atmosphere of Shinsekai is cute in another way. It's like being transported into a Japanese cartoon 🎏🎇 ⸻ 🌙🥹 Day 5: It's time to go back... But my heart is still here The last morning was quietly sad. I dragged my luggage through the same streets that I walk every day. I stopped at a convenience store to buy rice balls and banana milk (the most delicious in my life!) and sat on a bench by the side of the road to eat like someone who didn't want to go home 🥹🍌🍙 We said goodbye to the Glico sign with a warm heart and wrote a postcard to ourselves: "Thank you for daring to step out and come find true happiness in a small town. “Osaka” ⸻ 💖📎 Sweet summary: • Osaka is a lovely, warm city with culture, food and kind people. • Suitable for those who really want to relax, but also have fun corners to recharge your life. • You don’t have to visit every place, just have “little happiness” along the way. 🍃 ⸻ For those who are hesitating whether to go or not… Let me tell you, go! Then you will fall in love with Osaka like us every day~ 🌷🗾✨ ⸻ #Osaka #TravelJapan
