It takes almost 15 minutes to walk from the castle gate into Osaka Castle. The walls are really tall! Luckily, we used the Osaka Amazing Pass, so we could get into the castle quickly without waiting in line. Plus, unlimited subway rides—such a great deal!

Houkokuji Temple
This Kamakura temple received a three-star rating in the Michelin Green Guide Japan, a tourist guidebook aimed at overseas visitors to Japan.
The architecture really has that Japanese Zen vibe. The peaceful and quiet environment is perfect for a slow stroll.

Vegan Plant-based Pucchin Pudding
"Plant-based Pucchin Purin" is part of the "Pucchin Purin" series, which has long been loved since first being sold in 1972. The pudding is made entirely with plant-based ingredients and does not contain any animal products.

Namba Yasaka Shrine
”Namba Yasaka Shrine”, located in the Namba area of Minami in Osaka, is a historic shrine said to have been founded during the reign of Emperor Nintoku (313-399).
Namba Yasaka Shrine is a small shrine in a residential area. As soon as you enter the gate, you can see the huge lion's mouth—it's even bigger and more impressive than I expected! This shrine is said to ward off bad luck and bring good fortune!
