Osaka, a city that's fun just to walk around

This trip to Osaka was a "plan-free trip," but it was really fulfilling and satisfying. As soon as I arrived at the airport, I took the Nankai Line straight to Namba! Even just having a simple bowl of udon near the accommodation, the flavor was so rich that I was impressed.

On the first evening, I took a stroll around Dotonbori. Walking along the river, I took photos in front of the Glico sign and tried various street foods. Especially the kushikatsu was crispy yet not greasy, so I kept reaching for more.

On the second day, I went to Osaka Castle and Denden Town! The park around the castle was relaxing, and browsing character goods in Denden Town was really fun. In the afternoon, I lost track of time shopping on Shinsaibashi shopping street. Shopping was great, but the fun of discovering hidden eateries in the alleys was also a highlight.

Though it was a short trip, Osaka was packed with sights, food, and fun activities. The people were friendly, and transportation was convenient, so it was easy to travel alone without any burden.
