3 Day Itinerary for your first trip to Osaka!

Osaka is a beautiful city with lots of things to do and see, but here is an itinerary for those who come here for the first time and want to experience the main and most popular attractions.

Day 1

I would start your itinerary from the Osaka Castle. The park is always open and it's very famous especially in spring for its cherry blossoms trees. After you have visited the castle, I would go south towards one of the main districts of Osaka: "Shinsekai" (New World). Here you will have to go up the Tsutenkaku Tower and try the famous Kushikatsu! After spending a couple of hours here, head down towards one of the oldest shrines in Japan, Sumiyoshi Taisha. Finally, I would end the day at Teamlab Botanical Garden in Nagai.

Day 2

For those who love amusement parks, I'd say to spend the second day at Universal Studios Japan! Don't forget to check out my tips in order to avoid lines and how to get into Nintendo World without worries!

Day 3

On this day you will visit the two main centers of the city: Namba and Umeda. You will start in Namba, and finish your day at the Umeda Sky Building!
