Check out the food-obsessed city of Osaka on your trip to Japan and you are in for a memorable experience. Here are some of the top attractions.
Namba district is the most famous eating and drinking area in town, but you can still find a place to chill. Hozenji Yokocho temple is a tiny slice of calm in the middle of the city, and you can visit most days.
To get your hands on the freshest fish in town, head to Kuromon Ichiba Market. Wander the lanes and marvel at the produce on offer before retiring to one of the shops to eat a freshly grilled lunch.
Osaka Castle is must-see when you are in town, constructed in the late 1500s. Peruse the exhibitions that tell the story of the fortification, and then explore the park that surrounds it, which includes a plum tree orchard.
At night time, head to Dotonbori. Here you will find a huge array of neon signs advertising local businesses, and many traditional restaurants. It’s great for eating, drinking and shopping, as well as simply watching the locals as they go about their business.
