Foodies, rejoice! Widely known as the nation’s kitchen, Osaka is one city that knows how to whip up some mean cuisine. It may be due to its location next to the coast, or it may be just that they are extremely good at what they do! Whatever it is, you can be assured that the food you get here is some of the very best in Japan—it also happens to be the birthplace of many well-loved Japanese street foods such as okonomiyaki and takoyaki! Don’t forget to check out Dōtonbori, the very heart of Osaka, where a plethora of restaurants and shopping awaits you—though we’re sure you wouldn’t miss it with its eye-catching neon lights and extravagant signage! Osaka Castle, a vestige of 16th-century Japan, is also a sight not to be missed. You can be sure you're going to leave Osaka very full and very satisfied!
