About Osaka
Osaka is known as Japan's kitchen, a big-hearted port city of neon canals, street food and a grand castle, with Kyoto, Nara and Kobe close by.
Dotonbori, the canal-side entertainment strip, is the city's beating heart, its giant mechanical crab and glowing billboards reflected in the water. Nearby, the covered arcades of Shinsaibashi and the kitchenware street of Doguyasuji draw shoppers, and Kuromon Market tempts with seafood, wagyu skewers and fruit.
Top-ranked sights in Osaka: Tsutenkaku Tower, Osaka Castle (Osaka-jo), Nara Park (Nara Koen).
