A recommended Taiwanese restaurant "Kinsen-do" that is also featured in Kansai gourmet magazines. This is my favorite restaurant in Yao that I have been to for lunch with my husband and friends about 3 or 4 times. I recommend the lunch set, where you can choose two dishes of your choice and enjoy Taiwanese cuisine for about 1,000 yen☺️ [Recommended dishes] The noodle dishes are delicious, and the wonton yuzu salt ramen and tantanmen, which are only available in winter, are delicious. Also, the xiaolongbao are very delicious, so I recommend them. My husband said that the octagonal fragrant buns are delicious. If you order the cheese tea set, you can drink cheese tea at a discount. I personally like jasmine tea, so the jasmine cheese tea was very delicious✨ The other dishes are also delicious, so it's fun to combine them in various ways. [Recommended afternoon tea set] I was particularly impressed with the afternoon tea set✨ They carefully taught me how to drink tea, and I was able to enjoy Taiwanese tea very deliciously. It's a little pricey, but it's a recommended menu where you can enjoy Taiwanese tea and sweets. [Other points to note] Closed on Sundays. It gets a little crowded on Saturday lunchtime, and the restaurant isn't that big and there aren't many seats, so it's better to make a reservation. [Location] Address: 1-2 Sakuragaoka, Yao City, Osaka Prefecture, 581-0869 5-6 minutes walk from the east exit of Kintetsu Yao Station. No parking. Lunch budget per person: About 1000 yen For those who haven't tried Taiwanese food yet! A highly recommended restaurant☺️ #TaiwaneseRestaurant #Yao #OsakaGourmet #OsakaCafe #OsakaLunch #CheeseTea #Gourmet

#Osaka Attractions What greets you in Ganyingyuan is the fresh breeze and the lush greenery. ...There is a simple wooden bridge beside the path, gurgling water and lush greenery, and the casual and poetic scenery makes people stop and appreciate it. The mountains and waters of the middle courtyard are in full view, with a Zen feel in its simplicity. 😌Walking deep into the garden, there is a small pavilion overlooking the entire scenery. At this time, the sunlight is reflected on the water, which is very quiet and beautiful. 🍃 This short trip to the temple refreshed my body and mind. In the simplicity of the temple and the garden, I realized the true meaning of life~💭 #Japanese Garden Tour

Mister donuts offers a minions special now. Amazing and full of fun. Minions fans should come and grab one.

Stepping onto Yaoshan Castle, you can witness the tenacity of this ancient city that has stood firm despite all the vicissitudes of life. The winding moat flows at the foot of the city wall, and above the river are stone arch bridges that span the sky, adding a touch of vast and freehand momentum to these relics of the past. Slowly walk up the stone steps and arrive at the high ground center of the city. The city is full of trees and weeds, which are scattered in an orderly manner, creating a solemn and desolate atmosphere. Traces of wheel tracks can be vaguely seen on the old stone brick road under my feet. Recalling the hustle and bustle of the heyday, only a desolate and lonely scene remains now. Suddenly, the inviolable architectural structure precisely demonstrates the historical pride and extraordinary style of this ancient city. We walked slowly forward, our footsteps echoing among the remaining ruins of the city, and we seemed to hear the footsteps of the warriors stationed there and the galloping of war horses. Being in it, one can't help but feel a sense of bravery and heroism of a warrior, and the pursuit and aspirations of life in one's heart become more tenacious and heroic, as strong and determined as a warrior. #Osaka Attractions

#summerdream A place to pick strawberries and eat for 30 minutes with an entrance fee of 2,200 yen per person. It is the closest place to Osaka.

If you bring condensed milk, it will be very delicious. Get off at Takayatsu station and walk along the train tracks a bit more and you will find the farm.

There is a nemophila field in Kuboji Green Space, and I thought it would be great for short infants to go directly into the nemophila field. There are few reflections of the usual no-entry strings, path floorboards, man-made objects, so you can take photos that feel like a nemophila field in nature❤️ I stopped by twice on Saturday afternoon and evening, and both times it was deserted, so as long as your child stands in the place we specify (which is difficult lol), you can take the best photos✨ If you time it right, you can also take photos in the peony garden. It's a green park, so changing diapers wasn't a problem. #PR #Osaka #OsakaTourism

I often buy air tickets from many places; no matter it is airlines or agents, I have bought many air tickets online. What I want to share is that Trip's website notification is the best way. I will be notified of your itinerary four hours before departure, so that I can quickly grasp the travel time. Very thoughtful.
