Universal Studios Japan

The only place in Universal Studios that requires a security ticket to enter the park. Either pay extra or go to the park in advance to grab it. The immersive experience is really well done, as if you really came to Mario's world. There are mainly three video games: Yoshi's Adventure, Mario Kart and Donkey Kong's Mine Cart. You may break your legs in the queue, but it's really fun. The photo-taking place of the Internet celebrity is always crowded, and every photo has to be taken by the camera. I bought Mario's star popcorn tube, three hats and a pair of sunglasses. Although it's expensive, the photo effect is very good. Finally, I complained about the 2400 yen/photo at the door, and there were constantly VIPs in front. Well, if you want to have fun, you have to pile up money.

Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan

Don't miss the sea tour hall when you come to Osaka! I always brushed that someone complained that it was not worth it, but I just wanted to say that they really missed too much! Whale shark: As the treasure of the town hall of the sea tour hall, the whale shark is really super shocking! The huge body swims gracefully in the huge sink, and when you see it up close, you will really be impressed by the charm of marine life. Jellyfish: Jellyfish in the dream lights, like a gorgeous dance, any shot is a beautiful blockbuster. Penguins: The penguins are super cute, and some will plunge into the water. The swimming posture is fast and flexible. Touch pool: You can touch sea stars and sea urchins up close, and you will definitely love it! [Play tips] Buy tickets online in advance, and you can choose the admission time and save the queue time. Remember to buy a 400 yen seal manual, punch in 11 stamp points, and change special stickers after gathering, super sense of accomplishment. The tour is 2-3 hours, from the 8th floor to the lower floor, do not go back, the experience is full. 📍 [Surrounding Play] After visiting the sea tour hall, next to the Tianbaoshan Ferris wheel, sit up and overlook the scenery of Osaka Port, super romantic at dusk; There is also a Lego Discovery Center, which is very suitable for taking a baby to discharge.

Kobe Animal Kingdom

If you’re ever in Kobe, Japan, and looking for something fun and a bit different, definitely check out Kobe Animal Kingdom. It’s a super interactive zoo where you can get up close with all kinds of animals—think capybaras, alpacas, owls, kangaroos, and even penguins. A lot of the animals roam around freely in certain areas, so you can walk right next to them, feed them, and sometimes even pet them. It’s especially great for kids or anyone who loves animals.One of the coolest parts is the bird show—birds literally fly right over your head, and it’s way more exciting than you’d expect. Most of the park is indoors inside these big greenhouse-style buildings, so even if the weather’s not great, you’re covered. If you want to explore the outdoor areas and it’s raining, they even lend out umbrellas.The place gets a lot of love for how close you can get to the animals, but there are a few mixed feelings about the size of the enclosures for some of the bigger or more exotic animals.

LEGOLAND Discovery Center Osaka

This Lego Discovery Center is the same as Lego Discovery Centers in many cities. It has Lego miniature landscapes, Lego interactive areas (build buildings and then shake them with buttons, assemble cars, etc.), Lego 3D movies... It also has a small climbing and naughty castle for children to play, a flying carousel, and a theme restaurant. That's all. You can see everything quickly after entering. If you want to come here specifically for it, it's really not necessary, but the problem is that this area has the Kaiyukan, the Tempozan Ferris Wheel, and cruise ships, which are places where you can play for a whole day, so this Lego Center deserves a place 😅 Children can play, and I used the Kansai Travel Pass at the time, which was bought at a seafood market. It cost 70 per person and could play three attractions, and this Lego was one of them. The cost performance was immediately blown up 😂😂😂

The Wizarding World Of Harry Potter

[Immersive Game Experience] Perfectly re-engrave the game world, the interactive sense of adventure projects is very strong, there is [cost-effective] [interesting] [scenery] fun. It is recommended to play early bird tickets on the staggered peak, the first choice for parents and children and IP powder, the per capita consumption is high but the scene is worth the fare.

EXPO 2025 OSAKA, KANSAI, JAPAN

The five-yearly Expo officially started in Osaka, and today is just the day after its opening. Because it’s a working day in Japan, there aren’t too many people, but the news reports that there were more than 150,000 people on the opening day on the first day. The venue is too big, too many exhibition halls, only choose some fine to visit, the most notable should be the Chinese pavilion and several Japanese pavilions, the Chinese pavilion has lunar soil on display, Jiaolong under the sea 7,000 feet of footage exposed. The Japan Pavilion has the advantage of a home field, selling technology and the future. Overall, it's worth it, not to mention the first two weeks of tickets only need half price of more than 200 yuan!

Kobe Kitano Ijinkan-Gai

The Kitano Inokan is generally a well-preserved Western-style complex built around the late 19th century by foreign merchants and diplomats. Each exotic restaurant retains its unique history and style. Whether it is punching in and taking pictures or experiencing exotic culture, it is full of surprises. There are also special cafes, grocery stores, restaurants in the neighborhood, which are super good to visit!

Solaniwa Onsen Osaka Bay Tower

Just visited Solaniwa Onsen at Osaka Bay Tower and it was an absolute dream! The blend of traditional Japanese charm and modern luxury was stunning. From the beautifully themed baths to the serene rooftop garden, every detail was crafted for relaxation. The yukata experience made it feel like a peaceful getaway in the heart of the city. Spotlessly clean, friendly staff, and an unforgettable atmosphere. Perfect for couples, solo travelers, or anyone needing a recharge. Highly recommend!
