While at umaa station and is a must visit when you’re in Osaka number 11 olaka Castle located not too far away from huchi fruit farm ulaka Castle is a beautiful spot to explore and a great chance to enrich yourself in this City’s history with Osaka Castle opening at

9:00 in the morning this is the perfect spot to start out your day as many places in Japan generally don’t open until around 10: or 11: in the morning and while there aren’t that many areas open as early as this Castle this place will definitely keep you busy for a

Couple of hours at least until when everything else opens up aside from the massive 15 acre Park that surrounds the castle you can explore the temple you’ll find inside known as hokoku Shrine here you can pay your respects at The Shrine watch any side shows going on or enjoy

Any of the food stalls that might be around but of course no visit to this area is complete without taking photos of Osaka Castle itself the architecture of this Majestic structure will Astound you making you wonder how they were able to construct the ground’s massive Moes and the equally impressive Castle

Whether you’re a big history buff or just want to get a cool picture for your memory book Osaka Castle is a spot you cannot miss while visiting this city number 10 Osaka yuno Korea Town located on the Eastern outskirts of Osaka yuno Korea Town is is definitely worth the

Small Trek for several reasons to start off iuno Korea Town is full of authentic and delicious Korean foods you can choose from Korean style pork drinks kimchi and several other styles of great food aside from the vast food selections to choose from there are also several

Different types of shops to check out as well like many Korean towns this area is home to a lot of makeup shops and K-pop idle stores where you can stock up on coste efficient Cosmetics or even buy your friends back home a unique Korean souvenir not only is the store in food

Selection large but Osaka’s Korean town itself is quite extensive as well from end to end it took us almost an hour to get to the other side of this massive Korea Town and that’s not even considering that we went through this area at a pretty quick Pace Osaka’s iuno

Korea Town is a great spot many tourists don’t know about and is a must visit when you’re in this great City number nine Osaka aquari K kuuan located near Universal Studios in Nintendo World Osaka’s famous aquarium is just as fascinating to visit but for only a fraction of the price similar to Osaka

Castle this aquarium is one of the best ways to start out the day as it opens well before any other major attractions in Osaka plus with it being Japan’s largest aquarium you will spend at least 1 or 2 hours traversing your way through the several floors of the different

Exhibits giving you plenty of time to check out the aquarium until other shops open throughout the city here you can observe the hundreds of aquatic species like dolphins seals sharks and even see Penguins up close and personal what also makes this aquarium so special are the two massive whale sharks that you can

Find roaming the main tank this aquarium also offers the perfect opportunity to take your special someone on a nice date as there are some very nice seats at certain areas throughout the aquarium allowing you to sit down and enjoy the views Osaka aquarium Kiku on is one of

The best attractions you can explore and is a great spot to put on your list when you visit Osaka number eight aam mura known as the trendy District of Osaka a med kamuda is a fun and quirky area to check out for many reasons although this spot is a little hidden you’ll quickly

Know you found a meta kamuda when you hear the ’90s rap music blaring from all the open air shops not to mention the massive mural that is taking up the wall of a multi-story building at a medic Kamura you can explore all the different vintage and fashion shops where you can

Pick up some nice clothes to take home for cheap and as you make your way deeper into this District you’ll find the main attraction of AA kamuda and that would be the big step shopping mall inside this area’s Premier Mall you can find one of the biggest and most diverse

Vintage shops I have ever seen known as kingi used clothing we found a ton of different types of apparel and clothes that were an absolute bargain here not only are the bargain clothes a great reason to check out big step but its retro pinball arcade center is a true

Spectacle to see as well you can experience true Nostalgia with some of these pinball machines being a real blast from the past or you can even play some of the more modern themed machines too Amed kamuda is a trly unique site to see and is a place you should definitely

Check out when you’re in Osaka number seven denden Town much like Tokyo’s akata denden town is Osaka’s electronics and gaming Mecca at denden town you can check out all the different quirky shops that are open for business you can explore Osaka’s own mandarake which is home to hundreds of retro toy models and

Trading cards right across the way from mandarake is Anime Osaka which has various types of anime themed merchandise inside and similarly to ibukuro they also have a mix of Cosplay shops in denden town as well with plenty of different props and other cosplay items to buy whether Osaka is your first

Or last City to visit on your trip to Japan be sure to check out denden town to take home some fascinating Japanese souvenirs number six umeda Sky building umeda Sky building is a truly fascinating place to visit because of both its stunning architecture and unique Skyline views it has to offer as

You approach the building you’ll be amazed as you stare up at the massive structure and if you look close enough you’ll notice as peculiar pillars sticking out in the middle and if you are curious what those pillars are well you can easily find out by heading to the top yourself that’s right this

Building isn’t only a remarkable spot because of its design but also because you can head to the top and see Osaka’s Skyline View and all its Glory getting to AA Sky buildings Observatory is simple just head inside and follow the signs to the elevators and start making

Your way to the top the first really cool site at Oma’s Observatory will also answer the question of what exactly those pillars are as you approach the main escalators to finish your Trek to the top these escalators alone are worth the trip giving you a view that

Resembles something out of a work of art and offers a picture perfect view once you’re at the top and pay your entry fee you can walk around umida Sky’s impressive intersection of the observatory once you’re ready to check out the main event you can head to the

Very top and walk around Oma Sky’s fascinating rooftop Observatory umida Sky rooftop is very similar to Shibuya Sky giving you a clear and perfect view of the city down below umida sky building is a perfect spot for some breathtaking views and is a must visit when you go to Osaka number five dooni

Of course no trip to Osaka would be complete without visiting the famous dolami district doodi is renowned for its vibrant shopping centers restaurants and of course its nightlife aside from the massive Canal that gives doodi its iconic look you’ll know you found the heart of this District when you see the

Iconic gleo man cheering your arrival to one of the most exciting places in Osaka at the main strip of doodi you can sample all sorts of different foods whether it be Kushi KATU takoyaki and many more styles of iconic Osaka foods and once you’ve had your fill of all of

This great food you can pick out any of the bars or clubs throughout the area and party the night away as you head out of the center you can find the equally famous doguyasuji street just to the South which is host to food display stores and iconic Japanese Cutlery and

As crazy as it might look you can even buy a katana at this shopping area if you’re willing to foot the expensive bill for it though and this is only a sample of all of the different shops restaurants and attractions that await you here at dolori number four shinsekai

New world Shin Sakai or translated to mean new world is almost like Dori but with his own unique twist as you first make your way into Shin Sakai you’ll be met with a shopping street looking very similar to what donon bod alleys look like however as soon as you pass those

First few stores you’ll notice the difference as you can clear clearly see people having a blast doing target practice with bows and arrows and this Japanese carnival game is only the beginning of what shein Sakai has to offer as you continue to make your way into the heart of this area you’ll find

Only more and more great carnival games that await you on every side here you can partake in some truly entertaining games from bow and arrow target practice to shooting fake rifles and even throwing shuin as hard as you can not only do they have carnival games but

Just like a Med kamuda shinai has its own retro arcade room filled with dozens of old video games that are sure to give you a nostalgic blast from the past and after working up a massive sweat playing all of these great games make sure you stop by kushikatsu oi an amazing

Restaurant that serves up some of the best fried shrimp I have ever had shinsekai is full of surprises and is sure to give you some Unforgettable memories when you visit Osaka number three team lab Botanical Garden team lab Botanical Garden is one of the best spots to visit when Osaka goes dark once

The sun goes down this iconic tourist attraction lights up as the park becomes illuminated with all the dazzling sites team lab Botanical Garden has to offer getting in is pretty easy all you need to do is book your own ticket at their website which I provided in the

Description below once you’re done with that simply head to nagai park around the time you’re scheduled to enter follow the signs for team Labs botanical garden and then head inside once you’re there you can take in the dazzling sights and sounds that immediately greet you upon entering as you continue to

Make your way inside you’ll find one of the most iconic parts of botanical garden with the vibrant egg-shaped statues scattered throughout this magical forest after you’re done taking all the photos you can of this vibrantly bright egg Forest you can head on to the equally photogenic spot with an

Inflatable balloon maze appearing right before your eyes this balloon maze is more interactive than the egg Forest as well as you can bump and push your way through all the balloons to the other side and these areas are just a few of the great things that await you at Team

Lab’s Botanical Garden number two kudamon ichiba Market this Market is definitely one of the best experiences for both food and Adventure when you’re in Osaka located just off to the Eastern edge of doni you’ll be able to find dozens of different restaurants and street foods to indulge in known for its

Fantastic Seafood you can sample all the different mouthwatering types of treats like scallops crab legs shrimp tuna and much more not only is all of this Seafood food Super Fresh but they also prepare it right in front of your eyes all you need to do is point out which

Delicious pieces of seafood you want to sample pay the vendor and watch them cook it up to Perfection Seafood isn’t the only specialty at kudamon ichiba Market either as you can sample some truly succulent and Unforgettable beef skewers salted and spiced to your liking however in order to fully enjoy this

Market my best recommendation to you would be to head to this Market first thing in the morning this place can get pretty packed but despite the crowds it is still a must visit while you’re in Osaka before we get to number one on this list we still have some honorable

Mentions to go over which is the half in the 12 and 1/2 that you were waiting for along with that if you found this video useful so far make sure you hit that like And subscribe Button as it’ll help the channel out and you’ll be able to

Become famous for even if you think you found the best Japanese food in the world and you’re only going to eat that for the next 7 days straight you never know if you might just find the next best thing that you will decide to spend the next s days eating instead some of

Osaka’s must try foods are kushikatsu which are skewers of deep fried and delicious meats and vegetables of all kind takoyaki which are fried octopus balls that are available throughout the city steamed pork buns which you can find at this amazing little stall called futami noaman Fugu Sashimi which you can

Sample at kuramon ichiba market and much more let me know what your favorite food was in Osaka in the comment section below all right it’s time to get to that number one unique spot in Osaka number one henji Yoko and other hidden yoka chos visiting the hidden yoka chos is

One of the best things you can do while you’re visiting Osaka as it perfectly balances the excitement the city is known for but is also still off the beaten path for many casual tourists a yokoo which trans translates to Alley in English is exactly what the translation

Means as yoka chos are back alleys in side streets that are full of different bars and hidden restaurants to enjoy you can get lost inside any of Osaka’s fantastic yoka chos and sampled the foods drinks and the fun times all the while being one of the only tourists in

The area but don’t worry if you were lucky enough to find this video then you’re about to get the inside scoop of where some of these yoka chos are one of the most well-known yoka chos in is henji Yoko which is a maze of Alleyways with dozens of bars and restaurants

Tucked inside its walls and while that is the most well-known yokoo there is one more where you will almost never see a tourist and that would be Amba tame yokoo just like Tokyo’s back alley getaways inside uran Namba you’ll find several mini restaurants all packed into one tiny building this spot will give

You the true sense of immersion as you’ll be surrounded on all sides with Japanese locals drinking eating and just having a good time right along with you these hidden yoka CHS can offer some truly Unforgettable experiences and as a must visit the next time you’re in Osaka
