35 Things to Do in Osaka Japan! 🇯🇵 Cheap Hotel, Kyoto, Nara, and How to Avoid the Crowds

#osaka #kyoto #japan Hello everyone! It was time for us to make another trip abroad, and we managed to find a really good deal on flights and hotel to Osaka, Japan, so we decided to go there for 7 days to have a good time and to see our friends Chieko-san and Mieko-san that we met while travelling to Sapporo in January, 2023. In this video, we go over what we did and share some tips to avoid crowds while traveling to Osaka, Kyoto, and Nara. 🌐 Chieko-san’s Osaka Tour Through the Alleyways Near Osaka Castle: https://www.viator.com/tours/Osaka/On... 🏨 Our Hotel: Sunplaza Rinkai https://maps.app.goo.gl/AQdxW8X6HQGRV... 📍🦌 NARA LOCATIONS: #2: Nara Park https://maps.app.goo.gl/YNWPijsLdJJEo... #3: Tōdai-ji Temple https://maps.app.goo.gl/ZgW3w3sjPJGq3... #4: Nara Omotenashi (Japanese Home Cooking) https://maps.app.goo.gl/rvE4rWifE9YEb... 📍🏙️ OSAKA LOCATIONS: #5: Dotonbori https://maps.app.goo.gl/en4ZNzUdEKk2p... #6: Shinsaibashi Shopping Street https://maps.app.goo.gl/hRNsu7mdgXCyX... #7: Takoyaki Wanaka Namba https://maps.app.goo.gl/MEDrTWmSoiEHG... #8: Umeda Underground Shopping Mall https://maps.app.goo.gl/xUdW82kh2GZYX... #9: Walking Through Random Neighbourhoods (Literally Everywhere) #10: Tour Through the Alleyways with Chieko-san https://www.viator.com/tours/Osaka/On... #11: Osaka Castle https://maps.app.goo.gl/DQUBF1gtWmnrY... #12: Green Tea Taste Testing https://maps.app.goo.gl/v2NvLHNz5Nrg5... #13: Okonomiyaki Fusaya https://maps.app.goo.gl/7ZQD3h5VdrowW... #21: Edomae Kaitenzushi Kishu Yaichi (Sushi) https://maps.app.goo.gl/z4cSEuNwQnGHp... #22: Yodobashi Camera Umeda https://maps.app.goo.gl/D6E8rnxtuMcq9... #23: Uniqlo Links Umeda https://maps.app.goo.gl/Y24vEbxh2mnLY... #24: Wendy’s First Kitchen Umeda https://maps.app.goo.gl/n4iw71jLt2jwy... #25: Nipponbashi Denden Town https://maps.app.goo.gl/qc8W9fuYUY4bd... #26: Super Potato https://maps.app.goo.gl/RKqckYXrGLAJp... #27: Ramen Kikuhan https://maps.app.goo.gl/hzoqZBJvU3X69... #28: Deli Cafe Kitchen https://maps.app.goo.gl/aowpFY5NmsMnc... #29: Umeda Sky Building https://maps.app.goo.gl/w3CYgCbHPmV6o... #30: Yoshinoya Shibatacho Branch https://maps.app.goo.gl/q53kRwiRuGptG... #31: Umeda Outdoor/Indoor Alleyways https://maps.app.goo.gl/raxLQLR4e4TyC... #32: Komachi (Yakitori/Karaage Place) https://maps.app.goo.gl/bN2xFN9yHBgx3... #33: Rikuro’s Namba Main Branch https://maps.app.goo.gl/1wPXbXGgu5fYG... #34: Hozenji Yokocho https://maps.app.goo.gl/jwsYTfuNAPZnU... #35: Ichiran Ramen Dotonbori https://maps.app.goo.gl/Dbd3MVbSL15P4... #36: Kamukura Sennichimae (Light Ramen) https://maps.app.goo.gl/WB1T44VF4yfFS... 📍🏯 KYOTO LOCATIONS #14: Fushimi Inari Taisha https://maps.app.goo.gl/8PEekZYwhk7Sr... #15: Kiyomizu-dera https://maps.app.goo.gl/TRyfwSuDo7LQP... #16: Kinkaku-ji https://maps.app.goo.gl/Ezpiq842i1Z2B... #17: Kurama-dera Temple https://maps.app.goo.gl/tATXCL6Jvj9Qj... #18: Kifune Shrine https://maps.app.goo.gl/iqgpU2LtNZHEv... #19: Aburaya Shokudo https://maps.app.goo.gl/xCe2uwYsBCzBA... #20: Otani Cemetery https://maps.app.goo.gl/ScLzJiN2Jcyfh...
