Osaka🇯🇵

🍡 Osaka… The city of smiles, deliciousness, and cuteness 💕 Konnichiwa~ Come to Japan again! This time, we will take everyone to travel to “Osaka”, a large city in the heart of Kansai filled with the aroma of takoyaki, laughter from Universal Studios Japan, and beautiful views from the top of Osaka Castle. Let me tell you that this trip is a combination of fun, kawaii, and overflowing happiness 💓 🌟 Day 1: Arrived in Osaka, yay! 🍱 As soon as we got off the plane at Kansai Airport, our hearts were beating fast~ Osaka is here! We chose to use the Nankai Rapit train to get into the city because it is very convenient and fast. Plus, the seats are wide and very comfortable. After checking in to our accommodation, we immediately went out to explore. The first stop was Dotonbori, a very lively area where you can see iconic neon signs everywhere you look, especially the Glico sign 🕺 We took so many pictures that our memory card was almost full! The food here is the best!! Let’s have some hot takoyaki stuffed with squid. Sprinkle with fluffy, fragrant katsuobushi, followed by grilled crab with cheese~ that melts in your mouth. Dinner became a cute and delicious roadside buffet 🥰 🎡 Day 2: Universal Studios Japan (USJ) The Wizarding World 🎢 Today is the day I've been waiting for a long time~ Let's go to USJ! I already bought tickets in advance so I can enter without having to wait in a long line 🪄 When I got there, I went straight to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter 🧙♂️ Wow, the atmosphere is like being transported to a magical world. Walk around Hogsmeade, order a Butterbeer, and go up to the highlight, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. It's so fun and exciting that you'll forget to breathe! The other zones are just as great, including Minion Park, where the little minions are so cute~ and the newly opened Super Nintendo World zone!! Take a photo with Mario, enjoy games, and bring back lots of souvenirs 🎮🎁 🌸 Day 3: Osaka Castle & Shinsaibashi Shopping 🏯🛍️ Today, I wanted to relax, so I started the day by going to see the beauty of Osaka Castle, which is grand and has a long history. 💚 The white castle contrasts with the green and gold roofs, which is very beautiful. The surrounding area is a garden with a nice atmosphere, perfect for walking, taking pictures, and sipping coffee in cute cafes. 🐦🌳 This afternoon, there's nothing better than... shopping!! Let's continue to Shinsaibashi, a very long shopping street with cute Japanese brands like ZARA, GU, and even Japanese cosmetics shops like Matsumoto Kiyoshi, where we bought a whole box of masks to take home~ 💄🛍️ We shopped until our feet were swollen, but our hearts were even swollen more. 🥹 🍜 Day 4: Ramen tasting & Instant Ramen Museum 🍥 This morning, I wanted something warm, so I went to eat ramen at Ichiran Ramen! The highlight is sitting and eating at separate tables (like sitting and taking an exam but it's a ramen exam 🤣). The taste is sooo good! The noodles are chewy and soft, the soup is rich, it's really great! Then we took the train to the Cup Noodles Museum in Ikeda City, which is not far from Osaka. This is a world of instant noodles where we can design our own cup noodles! Choose the ingredients, put a pattern on the cup, and take it home with a certificate of cuteness 😆 🧸 Day 5: Nara & Deer-chan 🦌 On our last day, we went out of town for a bit by taking the train to Nara City, which is famous for deer! It only took about 45 minutes. When we got there, we saw deer walking all over the park! We prepared deer snacks (shika senbei) for them. When we got close, the deer surrounded us 🥺 Some even bowed to us, so cute! Then we stopped by Todaiji Temple to pay our respects, which has a huge wooden Buddha statue. It's a temple that truly gives peace and happiness. 🍃 🎀 Summary of my dream Osaka trip 💖 Osaka is a city that is warm, bright, and full of happiness in every detail, whether it's food, cafes, atmosphere, or people. Everything is so cute that I don't want to go home~ If you have the chance, I'd like everyone to come visit. You'll definitely fall in love like me. 💌 Lastly... Thank you for following our cute Osaka travel review! See you on the next trip... We'll definitely meet again in Japan! 🇯🇵💕 ⸻ #Osaka #TravelJapan
