About Osaka

Osaka kaldes Japans køkken, en varmhjertet havneby af neonoplyste kanaler, gademad og et stort slot, med Kyoto, Nara og Kobe tæt på.

Dotonbori, forlystelsesstriben langs kanalen, er byens bankende hjerte, med sin gigantiske mekaniske krabbe og glødende reklameskilte, der spejler sig i vandet. I nærheden lokker de overdækkede arkader i Shinsaibashi og køkkenredskabsgaden Doguyasuji shoppere, og Kuromon-markedet frister med skaldyr, wagyu-spyd og frugt.

Top-ranked sights in Osaka: Tsutenkaku Tower, Osaka Castle (Osaka-jo), Nara Park (Nara Koen).
