Japan Travel Guide—Osaka
Step into Osaka, located in the central-western part of Japan, in the heart of the Kinki region. Although it is the smallest prefecture in Japan by area, its population and population density are second only to the capital, Tokyo, making it the second largest in the nation. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with the western part facing the bow-shaped Osaka Bay. Due to its proximity to Japan's ancient capitals, Kyoto and Nara, it rapidly developed and prospered as a crucial hub for water and land transportation and as a commercial city. In the city of Osaka, there is Osaka Castle, centered around a 5-story castle tower, with a lawn park of about 60,000 square meters. During the cherry blossom season in spring, the park is thronged with visitors admiring the blossoms, creating an endless stream of people. In Umeda, the northern gateway of Osaka, there are many large underground shopping streets, lined with eateries, boutiques selling trendy goods, and miscellaneous shops. The area centered around Umeda is known as 'Kita'; the area centered around Namba and Dotonbori is known as 'Minami'. Namba is a bustling district with a common touch, while Dotonbori is an area along the Dotonbori River lined with eateries. Minami is a famous entertainment district, home to many theaters and cinemas.
Best Season: March to August is the best time to travel to Osaka, with pleasant weather and a variety of gatherings and festivals taking place, making it the time when you can experience the most characteristic activities.

✨ Tour Namba, enjoy the charm of Osaka ✨
Day 1️⃣: The temptation of bustling shopping
On the first day, I came to the bustling center of Osaka-Namba. Stepping into this neon-flashing world, I seem to be in the ocean of fashion and trend. Various international famous brands and local boutiques dazzled me, and I couldn't help but enjoy the joy of shopping. Whether it's luxury goods or trendy fashion, Namba can satisfy my various needs.
Of course, how can shopping be without the company of food? I tasted all the food in Osaka on Dotonbori Street. The hot udon, fragrant octopus balls, and skewers made me memorable. Every bite is a treat for the taste buds, which makes me deeply fascinated by the food in Osaka.
Day 2️⃣: Tracing the footsteps of history
On the second day, I came to Namba Palace, this ancient castle made me feel as if I had traveled through time and space. Walking in the long history, I listened to the stories of the past and felt the heaviness of history. Namba Palace is not only a magnificent building, but also a witness to the changes and development of Osaka.
In addition to Namba Palace, I also visited shrines and temples such as Taihuang Temple, feeling the tranquility and solemnity. In these ancient buildings, I immersed myself in the treasures of Japanese traditional culture and gained peace of mind.
Day 3️⃣: The bustling entertainment at night
The Namba at night is equally charming! I came to the bank of the Dotonbori River, where it was bustling. Under the neon lights, various bars, clubs and KTVs exuded attractive charm. I immersed myself in the enthusiasm of various live performances, laughing and enjoying a good time with my friends. The night here not only brings me endless joy, but also makes me feel the enthusiasm and boldness of the people in Osaka.
Day 4️⃣: The intersection of culture and entertainment
On the last day, I left it to the cultural and entertainment venues of Osaka. The Osaka Theater gave me a wonderful musical performance, and I was deeply attracted by the thrilling story and outstanding actors. The art gallery and museum show the rich artistic atmosphere of Osaka, allowing me to appreciate the wonder and infinite charm of art.
✈️ The final farewell ✈️
Leaving Namba, I returned with a full load. The Namba district of Osaka gave me an unforgettable travel experience, allowing me to immerse myself in the joy of shopping, the heaviness of history, the prosperity of the night, and the art of culture.

I have been talking about how to use the wide-angle camera of the mobile phone. Let's talk about telephoto today. With the children going abroad for the first time, I chose Japan and lived between Shinsaibashi and Tsutenkaku. Taking the sunset, pushing the children down the stairs and walking. The
skewed light hits the neat streets, using the compression effect of the telephoto lens of the mobile phone, and the sun shines from the street, and the warmth and the warmth meet, it is very beautiful.
and the baby walked in such a scene, blowing a small wind, went to the supermarket to buy some food, no heavy camera. Traveling can also be so easy.
