Day 1: Exploring Dotonbori — Lights, colors, and food that melt your heart

After landing at Kansai Airport, Boom quickly packed up and headed straight into the city. The first destination was Dotonbori, Osaka’s hottest district filled with beautiful neon lights and amazing food.

Walking out of the train station, we were greeted by the Glico sign waving its arm cutely. The lively atmosphere and the aroma of food filled the air. Boom searched for Osaka’s famous food, Takoyaki — crispy on the outside, soft inside, with big pieces of octopus, topped with special sauce and mayonnaise.
It was so delicious that Boom queued up for several more plates.

There was also Okonomiyaki, a batter mixed with vegetables and meat,
topped with sweet fragrant sauce that gets more addictive the more you eat. It felt like tasting the warm and gentle culture of Japan.

Walking along the street, Boom found a cute Japanese-style dessert shop.
Sweet-colored mochi shaped like cherry blossoms,
and the staff smiled sweetly too. The vibe was very cute and warm.

This morning, Boom started at Kuromon Market, Osaka’s famous fresh market,
full of fresh seafood with vibrant colors and clean fresh fruits and vegetables.

Boom tried small fresh sushi bites, very delicious, with perfectly balanced sauce. Also tasted freshly grilled shrimp with a perfect sweet and salty flavor that made the heart so happy.

Then walked to Shinsaibashi, Osaka’s popular shopping area,
with many beautiful shops and trendy cafes. Boom bought cute souvenirs like dolls, mochi, and Japanese cosmetics, all so adorable it melted the heart.

Day three was the most exciting day for Boom, going to Universal Studios Japan (USJ), the largest movie-themed amusement park in Osaka.

and enjoyed the Flying Hippogriff ride, which was super fun.

There was also the Mario Kart zone where you could race with favorite characters, super enjoyable, and cute character-shaped snacks like Minion popcorn that made Boom’s heart melt from the cuteness.

Climbed up to the castle’s top to see the city view, took beautiful photos with cherry blossoms and the wide cityscape. Photography lovers will definitely love it.

Then Boom stopped by Nakazakicho, a district full of cute cafes. Boom chose to sit at a cat cafe where the cats were very fluffy and friendly with customers. Sipping green tea there felt warm and homely.
