"Shinsaibashi is a shopping mall in the central district of Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture, Japan. A row of department stores and specialty stores are the representative central business district of Osaka. In narrow sense, it refers to the Shinsaibashisuji, which extends north and south to the east side of Midosuji, but generally includes the west side of Midosuji, centered on the Osaka City Campground, Shinsaibashi Station. The American village, known for its popular fashion letter, is a concentration of premium brand specialty stores, fashion stores and coffee shops. Shinsaibashi is really good. There are all men and women who want to buy in Japan, and the restaurants, coffee shop are all good, and there are many Japanese snacks, small balls, ice cream pancakes, yogurt. You can eat it when you are hungry. The place at the end of Shinsaibashi Sugiri is where you can visit affordable clothing such as ZARA, H&M, UNIQLO, FOREVER 21, and there are also high-priced "Daimaru Matsuzakaya Department Store" in the middle. These familiar brands are not introduced. On the contrary, I especially want to introduce a few to Shinsaibashi, which is worth visiting. It belongs to the Japanese young style brand "WEGO". The goods are also very design. For young friends with budget constraints, this one is quite good. Other brands such as Lowrys Farm and Spinns are also very good to buy."

"Osaka Castle Park is located in downtown Osaka, with a total area of 105.6 hectares. As an important symbol of Osaka, Osaka Castle Tianshou Pavilion is a must-visit attraction here. In addition to the Yu, Gate and Garden related to Chengguo, tourists will be interested in the two places that are MIRAIZA and JO-TERRACE to gather leisure and food. Places. There are also several squares, forests, plum forest, peach garden and other park facilities, as well as cultural and sports facilities such as music hall, field stadium, bow pavilion, monastery, exhibition hall. This is a precious green space in the bustling metropolitan area, and it is also a multi-functional public area where tourists and local people can stay and relax or engage in leisure activities. Because the scope of Osaka Castle Park is too wide, if you are really interested in going, the whole day is not enough. In view of the first time to come to Osaka Castle Park with the group, the tour guide only took us to the Tianshou Pavilion and took the bus to leave. I don't know what else is inside. It is not until after I have started to travel freely that I can collect data and arrange the itinerary as I want. Here are some of the attractions that I personally think are good in Osaka Castle Park, for the reference of friends who want to go. If time permits, please don't just watch the Tianshou Pavilion."

"it’s very fun! It is just really a strip & of course very touristy but it’s fun. Definitely should visit. They have this made up Billiken, American acquired deity to whom you tickle his feet and it’s good luck, so make sure you tickle his feet for. I don’t know it was an artist’s dream.The Hitachi tower also, which lets you admire Osaka from the skies. The town around is cool it is very chill and fun to walk around in the evenings."

"Beautiful area with plenty of history! I loved the bridges & the scenic walk to the castle. Overall I loved the museum experience & the view point so I definitely recommended however, the museum has a very modern feel to it. I was expecting an older traditional feel. We visited in summer & it was about 35 degrees which was quite exhausting. Recommend this place to all tourists & people in the area."

"If it’s not on your list of things to do while your in Osaka... add it. Now. Utterly fantastic! The ride was phenomenal and the Olivander’s wand shop experience was brilliant. The Butterbeer was gross though. More like ButtBeer."

The Lego showroom is also very good, there will be day mode and night mode. There are not many queues, Lego will have earthquake mode after the good, check your Lego is strong enough. Fun is still relatively strong."

"The new world has been very hot recently. Although the surrounding security is not dripping, it is really suitable for tourists to take pictures and punch in! It is very close to Tongtian Pavilion. If it is convenient, you can play together~ The signboard here is too eye-catching! Any shot is a blockbuster. In the summer vacation, there are really few Chinese people, but there are many tourists in Southeast Asia! There are many small shops to visit, but cute love small gifts to buy and buy! The most famous here is the fried skewers, Yuanzu is the most popular, a difficult to find. In fact, fried skewers can be tried, but the shops feel that they are all for tourists. Finally, we ate an izakaya on the street far from the attractions and tried the fried skewers. The experience was good. The surrounding security is not very good at night, and the people are fearless! Now think about it a little scared... It is recommended to check in during the day, and there are fewer people taking pictures."

Very convenient, and cheaper than buying on-site tickets is 600"
