Osaka Castle
Osaka Castle was originally built in 1598 by Hideyoshi Toyotomi. But the castle fell during a war in 1615. Then it was reconstructed in 1629 by Tokugawa Shogunate. But a lightning struck the Main Tower in 1665. The castle which exists right now is rebuilt in 1931.
Shinsekai and Tsutenkaku Tower
Shinsekai means "New World" in Japanese. This area was developed to have a "National Industrial Exhibition" in 1903. This was one of the most advanced and developed places in West Japan on that time and that's why this area is called "New World". And Tsutenkaku Tower stands in the center of this area and it's the symbol of Shinsekai and Osaka.
Dotonbori and Namba Area
This is the most energetic area in Osaka!! You can find a lot of stores, restaurants and really unique signboards like Glico Man, Kani Doraku Crab, Kushikatsu Daruma, and so on.
In this area, we can have the lunch in Okonomiyaki restaurant. Okonomiyaki is the most popular and famous soul food in Osaka!!
And we can try Takoyaki in this area. Takoyaki is one of the soul foods in Osaka and the most popular street food in Japan.

“Thank you for a great tour of Kyoto!”
It was an extremely hot day but Takashi was nothing but knowledgeable, flexible and kind during the whole tour. We were a family of four with two young children and Takashi provided lots of opportunities for rest, water breaks, and cold treats. He shared interesting facts about the different cultural sites and answered our children’s questions with enthusiasm and patience. He was easy to book and responded quickly, helping to develop a personalized itinerary that ticked all our boxes. We highly recommend Takashi for your tour. His English is impeccable. Thank you again Takashi for a great day in Kyoto!
