Byodoin

艾莉莎

From Osaka to Kyoto, I bought a one-day ticket for Keihan Railway, so I went to Uji on the way back. It was very close to Keihan Railway Station. After exiting the platform, the signs along the way were very clear. I crossed the road and walked to the other side of the bridge. Then I followed the signs to Matcha Street. It took about 10 minutes to get there. Since it was already evening, there were not many people. I went to Byodoin Temple first. The ticket was 700 yen. If you want to visit the Phoenix Hall, you need to add another 300 yen. Byodoin Temple is the pattern on the 1 yen coin. It is worth checking out.

Universal Studios Japan

It was so dreamy that it seemed unreal. Although I had watched the travel vlog of Universal Studios Osaka countless times on video, when I entered the park myself, it still seemed too fairy-tale-like. Mario World really exceeded my expectations. All the staff were so enthusiastic and brought in the atmosphere of the Mario game. I really wanted to live in such a dreamy world forever.

It's absolutely worth visiting! Better at daytime, I think, but evenings are fine too

Arashiyama Sagano Romantic Train

Kirito_Young

We are going to Lushan in summer. The scenery is the lushness of ordinary summer. The open carriages will be very cool, but the diesel smell of the train is particularly heavy, and the experience is generally the same. There is plenty of time to play, and you must come in autumn; Not enough time to make a special trip.

Nintendo Museum

游侠半仙

Kyomaru's lighting in 2024 will be themed as "Super Mario", and Christmas decorations for Mario, Luigi, Chinobio, Princess Biqi, Yaoxi and other characters will be set in the area around the Oga-bang, Marunouchi, Yule Marunouchi and other Marunouchi. "Marunouchi Bright Holiday" will be extended from Christmas to New Year 2025.

Osaka Castle Park

ley***ly

Shoutian Pavilion can represent Osaka Castle. The first floor can borrow a voice speaker. There is a Chinese explanation. It is very friendly to the Chinese. Take the elevator to the 8th floor. Then go down one layer and one layer. The history of Osaka Castle is very clear and comprehensive. Toyota Sioji builds Osaka Castle. Tokugawa Jiakang expands Osaka ～ Shoutian Pavilion in Osaka Castle Park. The park scenery is beautiful, and there are Merlin. Some plum blossoms have been opened. There are also some sputum to be put. It is worth punching in. It is recommended.

Osaka Castle Main Tower (Osaka Castle Museum)

Natasha...

You can buy and use it at any time, and the price is much cheaper than on-site. You can see the panoramic view of Osaka from the castle tower and learn about the history and culture. It is worth visiting. It is recommended to arrive at 8 o'clock in the morning. The environment is quiet and beautiful for taking pictures, and you can also avoid the large number of tour groups.

Kiyomizu-dera Temple

Janwen

Kiyomizu Temple, an ancient temple hidden in the foothills of Higashiyama Mountain in Kyoto, Japan, is like a hermit walking from the depths of time, carrying the vicissitudes of thousands of years of history, exuding a unique and charming charm. When you step into the gate of Kiyomizu Temple, the first thing that comes into view is the vermilion wooden structure. Under the caress of the sun, it is bright and dazzling, as if telling the story of the millennium one by one. The ancient trees in the temple are towering, and the thick branches are intertwined with each other, like a giant umbrella for this holy land, isolating the hustle and bustle of the world. Moss spreads along the stone road, and every step seems to be stepping on the veins of history, soft and deep. Follow the winding path and you will see the main hall. The architectural style of the main hall is unique. The huge wooden platform built in the air seems to be a miracle growing from the edge of the cliff. It is called the "Kiyomizu Stage". Standing on the stage, leaning on the railing and looking into the distance, you can see the scenery of Kyoto. In the distance, the mountains are rolling and shrouded in mist during the rainy season, which contrasts with the scattered and simple houses. On December 4, 24, I visited Kiyomizu Temple. The maple leaves were like fire, dyeing the entire mountain forest into a gorgeous red ocean, which contrasted with the vermilion buildings of the ancient temple, and the beauty was breathtaking.

Shinsaibashisuji

艾莉莎

When you come to Osaka, you must come to Shinsaibashi. There are too many restaurants in the nearby shops. If the time is not long, Shinsaibashi must come to high-end or affordable or beauty stores or restaurants or playgrounds or snacks. No matter the old, Chinese and young luxury shopping shop designs.
