Universal Studios Japan

The only place in Universal Studios that needs a guarantee coupon to enter the park. Either add money to buy it or go to the park in advance. The immersive experience is really good, as if it really came to Mario's world. Video games are mainly three projects: Yaoxi's adventure, Mario Kart and Yanqigang's mine car. You may have broken your legs and not yet lined up, but it's super fun. The net red photo is always a person, and every photo has to be snapped. Bought Mario's star popcorn tube, three hats and a pair of sunglasses. Although expensive, the photo effect is very good. Finally, I complained about the photo at the door of 2400 /piece, and there were VIPs inserted in the front. Well, if you want to play cool, you have to pile up with money.

Come to Nara Park to play, you must experience feeding fawn 🦌, I thought that my personal experience told everyone: Don't stay away from Figure 2, 4, this kind of antlers, very aggressive, my thigh was poked, went to the hospital to sew 3 stitches, in the afternoon to more than an hour this kind of buck attacked 3, 4 groups of tourists. The female deer can be fed, but also be careful to bite your hand or chase you to bite your butt and back. It will nod to you, but it is definitely not as docile as many guides introduced, and the wild ones are still appropriate to keep their distance!

It is a very long-standing shopping street and is a great place to explore the culture of the people in Osaka, Japan. The small shops on both sides are full of nostalgia, a wide range of goods, a variety of specialty shops, and a very exaggerated signboard, which can take many good photos. It is also a concentration of fried skewers, and you can feel the locals' eating and gathering habits.

Tongtiange is a frequent scene in Japanese animation and film and television dramas. It is the most visited attraction in Osaka. Tongtiange has many subways passing by. You have a variety of food and merchandise stores, zoos and municipal art galleries, which are very convenient. Online appointments, no need to pick up tickets, lack of paper bills collection. There are many tourists visiting, waiting for 20 minutes to board the pavilion, there are official photos upstairs, first indoor to see, then outdoor unobstructed, downstairs there are various cultural and creative products, it feels very user-friendly.

Osaka Castle Park in October was alive with energy—warm sunlight, bustling crowds, and a mix of history and nature. Despite the heat, the castle views made it worth the visit.

We really enjoyed this experience the view was outstanding. Cannot believe how far you can see! It also shows you why people walk 20k+ steps a day 🤣

Osaka Castle Main Tower (Osaka Castle Museum)

On the last day of the trip, I finally saw a large area of ​​cherry blossoms in the Osaka Castle Tower. It was very beautiful. There were many people in the tower and the line to buy tickets was very long. Fortunately, I suddenly had an idea and remembered Ctrip's online ticket purchase. I got the e-ticket and passed the crowd and went directly into the park.

I chartered a car with my two children to visit Kyoto and Nara in one day. I can only say that I have been there and seen it, but it was just a passing visit. I came to Todaiji Temple. I first ate this Buddha head pudding that seems to be quite popular on the Internet in the parking lot. I bought three flavors. Then I wanted to eat a Wagyu ramen, but when I went up, I saw that it was closed. Because I underestimated the weather here when I came, I didn’t wear enough clothes. I saw a Montbell store in the parking lot and bought a few more clothes... I had to rush back to Osaka, so I just strolled in front of Todaiji Temple and fed the deer. The deer are still a bit fierce, just like the monkeys in many scenic spots in China. They chase you for food, and bite your clothes if they can’t catch up... I was not careful, and a deer hit my little sister. Fortunately, it was not serious, but the child was scared and cried. Parents who bring small children should still pay attention to their children. The weather was bad and cold, so I didn't want to stay longer. Next time I should choose a warmer day and walk around more slowly to experience the beauty of Nara.

You must check in at Shinsaibashi when traveling in Osaka to experience an international city. There are many foreign tourists of various skin colors. I took photos with the Glico figurines and ate authentic octopus balls. There are many snacks here, various toy stores, and small gift shops. Overall, it's pretty good.
