I took a stroll around Hirakata, a suburb of Osaka. My destination was YORKIE COFFEE. It's a popular cafe located about a 5-minute walk from Hirakatashi Station. It's a branch of MEKEARISA, a very popular basket bag shop at Hirakatakoen Station, so the shop is colorfully displayed and sold with cute basket bags😍 It's also recommended for those who couldn't buy a bag because the bag shop was full! The original block-printed handkerchiefs are so cute that you'll want to have several of them. The coffee is also very delicious, making it perfect for a break. This is a place to enjoy while walking around Hirakata, which is also known as a historical road with places like Hirakata-juku on the Tokaido Road☕🐶 📍YOKIE COFFEE 10-1 Okamoto-cho, Hirakata-shi, Osaka 11:00-16:00 (until 17:00 on Saturdays) *From Google Map #Osakacafe #Osakagourmet #Hirakata #Hirakatacafe #0yentrip

Situated halfway between Kyoto and Osaka, the stunning eight-story Hirakata T-Site looks like a series of glass boxes stacked on top of each other. Although it’s more of a shopping mall than a library, the centerpiece of this gorgeous space is the Tsutaya Bookstore, with a soaring atrium and 7-meter-high walls filled with books. There are two of these impressive book walls on the fifth floor, and they’ve become an Instagram hit. The calming space is made even more beautiful by the natural light that pours in through the floor-to-ceiling windows.#Hirakata #Hirakatalibrary #japantrip
