The city of ultimate fun and delicious food to your heart’s content 💙🍡🎉

Hello everyone! Today Boom will share a story about traveling in Osaka,
a city that is a dream destination for many! Osaka is not just an ordinary big city, but a city full of fun, delicious food, and warm culture. This is a cute travel review that will take friends along Boom’s memorable journey.

Arriving at Kansai Airport, heading to the fun city of Osaka

After flying to Kansai Airport located in the middle of the sea, wow!
Boom took a train into Osaka city quickly, about 45 minutes.
The trains here are super clean, air-conditioned, and the Japanese people are very polite.
When arriving at Namba Station, you can immediately feel the city’s full energy!

Namba District, Dotonbori: Neon lights and hot takoyaki

If you go to Osaka and don’t stroll around Dotonbori, it’s like you haven’t arrived yet!
This area is full of restaurants, with spectacular neon signs. Anyone who wants beautiful photos must come to Ebisu Bridge.
The atmosphere is lively both day and night.

What Boom really enjoyed was eating takoyaki, round balls of soft batter filled with fresh hot octopus, topped with sweet sauce and mayonnaise. Boom kept walking and eating, almost couldn’t stop.

Osaka Castle: A historic vibe and magnificent city views

The next morning, Boom woke up early to visit Osaka Castle,
famous and with over 400 years of history. The white castle contrasts beautifully with the blue sky. Around it are lush green gardens. If you come during cherry blossom season, you’ll definitely see postcard-perfect views.

Boom climbed to the top floor of the castle to see the city of Osaka from a high vantage point. It was very beautiful and vast, with tall buildings and a flowing river. So beautiful that Boom wanted to keep the memory forever.

Universal Studios Japan: Ultimate fun in a fantasy world

If you like amusement parks, you must not miss Universal Studios Japan!
Boom enjoyed many fun rides, especially the Harry Potter zone,
which perfectly recreates the village of Hogsmeade and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
It felt like stepping right into the movie.

Boom also tried other rides like Minions, Jurassic Park, and Super Nintendo World, which was very cute and lively.
Boom recommends buying an Express Pass to avoid long lines and enjoy the fun without interruption.

Shopping at Shinsaibashi: A shopper’s paradise

The next day, Boom went shopping in Shinsaibashi, a hub of fashion stores, souvenirs, and many cute restaurants. It’s very long and tiring to walk, but Boom found a cute bubble tea café with the best taste, perfect for resting and soaking in the warm atmosphere.

Boom bought many souvenirs and gifts.
Highly recommend this place for those who love fashion and cute Japanese items.

⸻

Kuromon Market: Delicious enough to say wow!

Another spot Boom really loved is Kuromon Market, a fresh market full of fresh food and amazing Japanese snacks. Boom tasted fresh sushi, grilled giant crab, scallops, and freshly made takoyaki from market stalls.

The atmosphere here is lively and very friendly. The vendors are kind and recommend must-try foods, making you feel like you’re visiting a Japanese friend’s home.
