The freshly grilled oyaki are super fragrant and hot! The village has a strong countryside feel—almost like stepping back into an old rural village. You can snack, play, and shop for souvenirs. The whole experience is fantastic!

Itsukushima Shrine
Itsukushima Shrine stands on the island of Itsukushima, which is also known as the island of gods. It is said that the shrine was founded in 593 by Saeki no Kuramoto, and the 3 goddess “Ichikishimahime-no-Mikoto,” “Tagorihime-no-Mikoto,” and “Tagitsuhime-no-Mikoto” are enshrined there. Famous for granting a wide list of benefits, these three goddesses as are worshipped as the goddesses of the sea, transportation, fortune, and art.
High tide and low tide each offer a different experience. There are also cute deer and lots of shops nearby. This is a must-visit sightseeing spot.

Osaka Water Bus Aqua-Liner
A popular sightseeing cruise through Osaka, the city of water, offering views of Osaka Castle and Nakanoshima. The approximately 40-minute cruise travels along the Okawa River through central Osaka. The riverbanks are lined with greenery and historic architecture, creating a charming cityscape.
The glass boat has comfy air conditioning in the summer, and it can adjust its height to pass under bridges. Pretty fun experience.

Umeda Sky Building and Kuchu Teien Observatory
Completed in 1993, this enormous 40-story skyscraper consists of two towers connected at the top. It was selected in the UK as one of the “Top 20 Buildings in the World” and described as a “thrilling skyscraper.” Its striking architectural design is another reason for its popularity. The departure gate on the third floor leads to an elevator that takes visitors directly to the 35th floor.
After visiting, I really felt it was worth it!
