This is my second time visiting, and the third time is definitely coming. No matter how many times I go, it never disappoints. The hotels are affordable and close to the station. There are many delicious foods and numerous shopping spots. There are also many attractions not far from Namba Station. You can reach them within 30 minutes by train. Nagoya Castle is very beautiful, and the view from Umeda Sky Building is stunning, especially during sunset. If you visit, don't miss it. I'll bring back more beautiful photos next time.

This time, the destination was Osaka and Nagoya The first stop was, of course, Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi. We saw the Glico Man and took a boat ride. We relaxed and enjoyed various foods, and their famous ramen was indeed delicious!!! We also visited various famous castles, took many magnificent photos, and only shared 10 highlights with everyone!! Additionally, as an eel lover, I went to Kuromon Market and had charcoal-grilled eel rice. It was indeed tasty, and watching the grandma grill it by hand made the 2000 yen worth it. A day at Universal Studios was definitely worth it. We enjoyed various themes, and Mario was incredibly popular. Even with a Fast Pass, we waited for half an hour. It was exhausting... Overall, the entire trip was joyful and relaxing. If anyone is interested, I can share the whole itinerary with everyone.

#HotelAccommodationEvent Motomuragyukatsu is a gyukatsu specialty restaurant located in Osaka, Japan. It is popular with many people because you can taste gyukatsu made with fresh beef. The menu is a single gyukatsu set menu, and the price varies depending on the number of grams. An additional bowl of rice is free, and there is also a set that includes beer. Since the Google Map rating is high, the waiting time is long on weekends, so we recommend visiting during the opening run or at an ambiguous time on a weekday.

A delicious restaurant located in Osaka Namba There was also Isaribi, but I went to Mizugakechaya The price is reasonable and the food is grilled right in front of you👍🏻 However, if you are going, it is better to make a reservation The 2nd floor is smaller and the staff is kinder The 1st floor was a little...the service was a little disappointing #July travel support event #Osaka #Osaka travel #Namba delicious restaurant
