A Hot Kobe & Osaka 2-night 3-day Travel Itinerary

If you book Cross Hotel, the Rapi:t train is a must! You can get there on foot within 10 minutes after arriving at Nankai Namba Station! Or, even if you can’t book Cross Hotel, it’s best to book near Namba Station!

First, you’ll need to leave your luggage, right? Even if you can’t check in to the hotel yet, you can leave your bags, so drop off the heavy luggage first and start your Osaka trip!

Even a mountain must be eaten after a meal! The hottest tonkatsu spot near Namba! This is a tonkatsu restaurant fried at low temperature, and you absolutely have to make a reservation in advance here! You can also make reservations through Instagram, so keep that in mind!

Now that we’re full, our first destination is the Umeda Sky Building Floating Garden, where you can see Osaka city at a glance! You can feel the scale of an observatory that’s on a whole different level from the usual viewing decks!

A place famous as a large-scale department store connected to Umeda Station! You can take in a panoramic view of Osaka city at a glance!

Since you’re in Osaka, Osaka Castle is of course a must, right? Also, if you buy the Osaka Amazing Pass, the Umeda Sky Building Floating Garden Observatory, Osaka Castle, HEP FIVE, and the Dotonbori River Cruise you’ll go on in the evening are free!

Dinner is at Osaka’s hottest conveyor-belt sushi place! It has everything from quality to price, so it’s always very popular! Waiting is a must, so keep that in mind! If you don’t like waiting, I also recommend going right when it opens :)

A classic for an Osaka trip! After eating sushi and getting full, what then? Go to Dotonbori and take a cruise once! The night view is so beautiful that it still remains very memorable to me
