A brief introduction to Osaka

Osaka offers a unique combination of youthful charm and rich history and is known for its diverse mix of restaurants, nightlife, and architecture.

Commonly referred to as the ‘nation’s kitchen’, Osaka is home to thousands of restaurants ranging from traditional “izakayas” (Japanese pubs) to acclaimed Michelin star restaurants. Be sure to sample “takoyaki” (golden deep-fried octopus balls) and “okonomiyaki” (a savoury pancake dish) – two of Osaka’s specialties.

To experience Osaka’s thriving nightlife, we recommend visiting Dotonbori. This popular area is famed by its bright, neon lights, and quirky atmosphere. While here, be sure to take a photo next to the iconic Glico running man – an illuminated billboard dating back more than 80 years.

The city is also ideal for culture lovers. The 400-year-old Osaka Castle is a significant part of the city’s heritage and was built as a symbol of the unification of Japan in the 16th century. In the southern part of the city, you can also find the Sumiyoshi Taisha shrine, a 3rd-century shrine steeped in history.
