'This is my ultimate Osaka travel guide! Osaka is the kitchen of Japan, this video includes 30 secrets and best places to visit which I carefully selected, things to do in Osaka like Endo Sushi, Mr. Kanso, USJ, Takoyaki Museum, the best Kushikatsu, the best Okonomiyaki experience, Abeno Harukas and where to party in the Osaka Nightlife in Shinsaibashi. Subscribe to my channel ► https://bit.ly/2aeuh9b for new videos! A good place to start in Osaka is Amerikamura, the funky hipster district commonly compared to Tokyo\'s Harajuku district with wacky shops like the Panbo Pancake Kebab shop, which makes for a delicious breakfast. Also bring you camera since this area is great for street photography and youth fashion.

I highly recommend you make your way to the top floor in castle for some stunning views of Osaka and getting an idea how the ancient warlords used to live. Osaka Castle played a major role in the unification of japan during the sixteenth century. If time permits, checkout Japan\'s biggest aquarium in Osaka called Kaiyukan which includes the great barrier reef collection and is about a 2 kilometer walk through the aquarium. I have never seen such a massive indoor fish tank in my life. Entrance sets you back 2300 yen or 21 US dollars since the aquarium is west of downtown Osaka it is a great idea to combine it with a visit to Endo Sushi, Osaka\'s best sushi located at the Osaka Fish Market, a sushi experience you will not regret! Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan Tickets https://www.govoyagin.com/activities/japan-osaka-aquarium-kaiyukan-instant-e-tickets/1305?acode=reformatt Osaka like Tokyo is also known for having outrageous shops like the Longsoftcream, the longest ice cream in Japan for 500 yen or 4.75 US dollars this shop is located in Amerikamura, a place to meet really friendly and cool locals. OSAKA Discounts! Mario Kart Osaka 25% OFF https://www.govoyagin.com/activities/japan-osaka-rent-go-karts-and-ride-around-osaka/7993?acode=reformatt USJ Osaka Express Pass https://www.govoyagin.com/activities/japan-osaka-usj-universal-studios-japan-tickets/9711 For dinner I highly recommend you head over to the Shinsekai district, which is even more visually pleasing than the famous Dotonbori tourist district. The number #1 dinner to try in Shinsekai is Kushikatsu which are lightly fried vegetables and meats on a stick, they have only 1 rule, you can only dip your skewer once in their special dip sauce since it is used by every customer. Also, stay connected at all times in Osaka by renting a Ninja Pocket Wifi station which you can easily carry around Japan, click here for a 30% discount on a Ninja Wifi router. For the most mesmerizing views of Osaka head over to the Harukas 300 observatory deck at the Abeno Harukas building just east of Shinsekai. Entrance is 1500 yen or 14 US dollars, I do recommend you visit in the evening so you can see the sunset and night view of this incredible city with all it\'s blinking lights on its sky scrapers. Abeno Harukas Observatory Tickets https://www.govoyagin.com/activities/japan-osaka-harukas-300-observatory-e-ticket/9412?acode=reformatt Like most tourists, a visit to the Dotonbori district is a must! Dotonbori includes the famous canal cruises, magnificent restaurants with crazy decorations and mouth-watering street foods like the Giant Japanese Scallops, Takoyaki and the massive Dotonbori Sandwich complete with Gyozas, Yakisoba and a ton of sauce. In conclusion, I am often sad to hear that new visitors to Japan often skip Osaka for Tokyo and Kyoto, but I hope to have convinced you with this new travel guide to give Osaka a change as well. It is for good reason Osaka is called the kitchen of Japan. Above all, make sure you sign up for the 30% discount on the Osaka Mario Kart Experience, get a discount on the Universal Studios Japan Priority Pass, even from Osaka you can make a day trip to Kyoto allowing you more time to spend in Osaka, especially if you like a good party.
