Route

1. This suburb is a bright burst of colour into anyone’s life. Famous for being Osaka’s ‘old downtown district’, it carries an air of nostalgia through its retro-style stalls and shops which often has visitors stopping at the displays and mascots out front just to take photos. It’s definitely considered one of the best photo spots in towns simply because a). It’s so visually crazy and appealing, and b). There are so many photo opportunities everywhere. Don’t forget to also try and capture an image of Tsutenkaku Tower, which is considered the unofficial symbol of Shinsekai!

2. This visually stunning castle will take your breath away from the moment you lay eyes on it. Surprisingly, one of the things that make this place stand out is the fact that it’s surrounded by metropolitan buildings. Because of this uniqueness in location, this castle appears to be that much more special.

Dontonburi street runs parallel to the Dontonburi Canal, so you can make your way up one route and down the other quite easily. The street itself is a colourful amalgamation of bright neon lights, flashing billboard advertisements, and a multitude of bars, restaurants and street stalls.

7. As one of Japan’s oldest temples ever, you’d be surprised at just how well-maintained and stunning this temple is. Don’t be fooled though, the building structures of this temple have actually been burnt down a few times in the past few centuries, however, every single time it has not failed to be carefully re-constructed to replicate its original 6th century design.

About Osaka

Osaka is de keuken van Japan, een warmhartige havenstad met neonverlichte grachten, straatvoedsel en een groot kasteel, vlak bij Kyoto, Nara en Kobe.

Dotonbori, de uitgaansstrook langs het kanaal, is het kloppende hart van de stad, met zijn gigantische mechanische krab en gloeiende reclameborden die in het water weerspiegelen. Vlakbij trekken de overdekte winkelgalerijen van Shinsaibashi en Doguyasuji, de straat van het keukengerei, shoppers, en Kuromon Market verleidt met zeevruchten, wagyu-spiesjes en fruit.

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