A walk in Kansai: A complete guide to your dream journey

The morning light in Osaka shines on the tiles of the castle tower
Shinsaibashi's streets are full of fashion trends
The lights of Dotonbori sparkle with endless nightlife
Namba Yasaka Shrine, a Pure Land for the Soul
Umeda's skyline, a blend of modernity and classicism

The next day's dawn brought me to Katsuo-ji Temple
Find a moment of tranquility on the outskirts of Osaka
The traffic is long but worth every step
Here, I make a wish in my heart

From Osaka to Kyoto, overnight
The ancient stairs of Kiyomizu Temple are covered with lotus flowers
Ninenzaka, Threenzaka, a gap in time
Kodaiji Temple, stone-walled alley, quiet beauty
From Yasaka Shrine to Hanami-koji, a sleepless night in Gion
The clear water of Kamogawa tells the story of the ancient capital

The trip to Kyoto does not end there, Nanzenji Temple Fushimi Inari
Thousand Torii Gates, step into the boundless scarlet
Nara's Deer Trail, the Sacredness of Kasuga Taisha Shrine
On Mt. Wakakusa, the whispers of the wind

The scent of Uji tea, the reflection of Byodoin Temple
Uji Shrine, a long story
Starbucks Byodoin, time for a cup of coffee
Uji Park, The Tale of Genji Museum, pages of books flying

Wakayama's Kishi Station, the lightness of the cat train
The castle tower, the depth of history
Kishu Toshogu Shrine, Kisanji Temple, Deep in the Spiritual Aura

Kobe's final chapter, pray at Ikuta Shrine
The bustle of Chinatown and the romance of Kobe Port
Meriken Park, the exotic scenery of Kitano Ijinkan
A meal of Kobe beef is the taste of this city

Every stop, every step
Days in Kansai are like poems and paintings
Here, every corner is a poem
Every moment is worth remembering
