Shinsaibashi-suji Shopping Street, Osaka

Shinsaibashi-Sub is 600 metres of retail therapy from discount to high end, surrounded by more shopping and tonnes of places to eat on the side streets. I'd read about it but nothing could prepare me for the experience. It can't be rushed, mainly because of the crowds, but also because there is just so much to see and buy. If you do need a break, I recommend a 20 minute cruise on the Dotonbiri river. It was fun, even with a light drizzle.

This is where you take photos for your Instagram, Facebook and your memories. Osaka’s best tourist attraction at night. Neon and lights make up the beautiful views from every angle. Restaurants, cafes, and entertainment is everywhere here for kids to adults. This is the most famous spot for photos at night after or before your dinner. Like night market, but more organized and cleaner, thanks to Japanese standard and maintenance, it is always clean and safe. Shops and rivers, it is really attractive at night that makes you want to stay longer and take more photos.
