Day 1: Osaka Shinsaibashi Food Tour + Shopping
On your first day at Saibashi, remember to reserve time to slowly stroll through Shinsaibashi Shopping Street. There are trendy brands, drugstores and specialty snacks.

Day 2: Explore Osaka Sea Aquarium

Day 4: Dotonbori Night Market + Burst Shopping Universal Cosmetics
