Scenic spot introduction:

Osaka, Japan, is the second largest city in Japan. It is the water, land and air transportation center in western Japan. It is also the first stop for most tourists when they come to Kansai. As an international metropolis, Osaka's business culture is quite developed. Namba in the south and Umeda in the north are the most prosperous shopping areas in the Kansai region. Shopaholics will definitely have their fill here. There is a saying among Kansai people that "Osaka is eaten down". The food culture here has a long history and local snacks are popular. Whether it is shopping, tasting food or visiting attractions, Osaka's enthusiastic, interesting and urban atmosphere is the most distinctive part of this city. I believe it will make tourists realize a different Japan.
