Anonymous userExpress pass is a must when visit USJ! Really save a lot time plus no need to queue 2 hoursM23***61There weren't many highlights. It was a reconstruction of an old building, which explains why there were so many modern architectural details. There was a lot of explanatory material, but not many original artifacts; it seems that apart from the foundation, there's not much from the Toyotomi Hideyoshi era.
The extra stone museum ticket wasn't really worth it. You just go in, look at the pile of stones from the foundation, and then leave. The Japanese are really something—they managed to put together an exhibition of such a small amount of material._TI***7zWe didn't expect anything interesting, but it was amazing! Big clean space, a lot of different fish, modern locations. Cute shop on first floor.Anonymous userThe Umeda Sky Building is definitely a must-visit spot. It offers a unique experience that sets it apart from other towers in Osaka. The ride up to the observatory deck on the escalator is something you won't forget. Make sure to check out the open-air deck too, where you'll get a completely different view of the city compared to the glass-enclosed observatory deck. We went early, right when it opened, and there were no crowds. But by the time we left an hour later, about 50 people were waiting in line. So, it's a good idea to pre-book your tickets. Another highlight was the Koji Kinutani Tenku Art Museum in the East Building. The exhibition offered a special glimpse into Japanese art. The 3-D show was a fantastic introduction, weaving all the art pieces into a story before we saw the individual paintings. A delightful surprise was the café. It was empty when we arrived, and we enjoyed a window seat with a view of the Osaka skyline while sipping fresh drinks and savoring tokoyaki.
_TI***k4One of the most important tourist spots that should be consider for first time Osaka travelers_TI***trI had a lot of fun. I bought the triple pack where you can "dive and walk," slide, and go to the observation tower.I wanted to do it in that order, but due to the language barrier and not clear directions on where to go I slid first, then observation tower, and I did "dive and walk last." If you want to dive and walk first then you need to bring your QR code to an office which is about 1 min from the tower. In that office you change into your harness and helmet (and that's where you bring it back too). I loved the experience and the tower, I just would have liked to have done "dive and walk" first. Regardless, I had fun and recommend it.贝小贝193You absolutely have to take a picture of the Glico sign! [Smart!] It's a great photo opportunity! Dotonbori Street is bustling with restaurants and shops, and everyone eats and shops. Along the street, you'll see all sorts of eye-catching giant 3D signs—crabs, octopuses, and so on—with unique designs that you can tell what they sell right away. Hahaha.射手玫瑰Near Tennoji in Osaka, you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of Osaka's night scene from 300 meters high. You can see the sunset around 5 pm. Afterwards, go to the garden on the 16th floor of the building. The building is a complex that integrates restaurants and shopping malls and is worth checking out.ㅣreccoㅣIt is a shopping street with a long history.
It is an excellent place to explore the common people’s culture in Osaka, Japan.
The small shops on both sides are full of nostalgic style of the times.
A dazzling array of products and various specialty shops,
There are also very exaggerated signboards, which can take many good photos.
It is also a concentrated place for fried skewers.
You can feel the local people’s eating and party habits.CW_LAfter arriving and seeing the long line to purchase the entrance ticket, I wiped out my cell and proceeded to do it with Ctrip. Ctrip you rock! I got my tickets immediately and skip the suffering of waiting in line. The Castle is really beautiful on the outside but if you are expecting to see lots of architectural features on the inside, then I do not recommend it as there are none. But if you want the history of the Castle and the view from above, then go ahead. For great pictures go to Nishinomaru Garden, really close by.
