Osaka solo travel diary | The whole world is full of encounters, and I am waiting for you to travel with me🥺

On the first day I arrived in Osaka, I was standing at Dotonbori Crossing and was surrounded by people. Suddenly, a thought crossed my mind: “Has everyone in the world come to Osaka?”🌆 Although I set out alone, I felt the liveliness and warmth everywhere. I wanted to record the romance of this city and quietly made a wish: next time, I want to come again holding the hand of my important person~ 🌟 Solo travel only: freedom and surprises for one person 📍Dotonbori: a bustling and bright city that never sleeps At night, the Glico signboard flashes neon lights, and the aroma of barbecue wafts from the roadside izakaya. Sitting alone at the bar of "Kani Doraku", the Osaka aunt at the next table saw me hesitating with my camera and took the initiative to help me take a photo with the giant crab claws 📸 When I left, she also gave me a "hidden food map". It turns out that enthusiasm is really contagious~ 📍Umeda Sky Building·Own the entire night view Climbing up to the outdoor observation deck on the 39th floor, the sunset dyed the entire city golden red. The couple next to me was taking photos of each other, and I was holding my phone up to the Tsutenkaku in the distance. Suddenly, a boy asked, "Do you need me to take a panoramic photo?" So I got a photo of "hugging Osaka alone". The kindness of strangers is always warm and unexpected~ 📌 Practical tips for solo travel ✅ Most restaurants in Dotonbori have "single seats", so even those with social anxiety can dine comfortably ✅ Umeda Observatory has a "night view photography tutorial" on Wednesdays, so you don't have to panic when taking photos alone #Osaka Itinerary
