It was my first time visiting Osaka during the summer. The weather is quite hot, with some days being hotter than Singapore โ๏ธ These are the places we went and thereโs more ๐

We arrived at USJ around 10 am on a weekday, and it was not very crowded. Remember to reserve your time slot for the Nintendo entry before you arrive, as well as download the USJ app for your convenience (mostly for waiting time and the map). Arrive early to avoid crowds. Fortunately, the day we went was not particularly crowded, and the average wait time for most rides was 40-60 minutes. The weather is really hot, do remember to bring your caps, portable fan (which is a life saver) and your shades. My friends and I got sunburned as there were not many sheltered areas other than the gifts shop.
Rides that you must go: ๐ข๐ฏ
1. The Flying Dinosaur
2. The Hollywood Dream
3. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey (MUST MUST)

The deers were roaming around freely finding food. For 200 yen, there is a deer snack booth directly in front of the park. It will repeatedly bow to you as it waits for food. Be mindful of your surroundings as there are many poops around because I stepped onto it ๐ฅฒ

If you visit Nara Park, make sure to try the famous mochi store with over 20 years of experience. About 5-10 mins away from the park. The chewy mochi is packed with a sweet red bean paste.

The street is mostly filled with food and is especially beautiful at night. Save some space for the gourmet food and the night views with neon lights. Shinsekai also has a mega don quijote nearby where you can shop until you drop. It is the largest don quijote I have visited in Osaka.

We encountered this amazing beef bbq restaurant. It is close to Dontonburi/Shinsabashi. The beef was tender and melted in our mouths. Not only was the beef amazing but so was the rice and sauce. We even ordered more rice and asked for extra sauce. However, as the portion is small, it was not cheap, but give it a try if you are close. *We walked in with no reservations*

One of the most beautiful places I have visited in Osaka, everything just looks so phenomenal. We rented our kimonos from a place named "Curun." We paid roughly 60 sgd each for the kimono, bag, footwear, and hairdo. We then went to Higashiyama, where we wandered through small streets filled with souvenirs, food and experienced traditional Kyoto. There were 2 nearby temples and shrines to visit, Kiyomizudera and Yasaka shrine. There were numerous ice cream shops which were best for summer days. Matcha ice cream is a summertime must-have.

This place is for all seafood loversss!! The freshness of the seafood that you cannot get in Singapore HAHHA and is affordable. The A5 beef and king crab is my favourite. My friend also said sashimi is good. For those who do not eat raw food like me, thereโs sushi restaurant at the market too that sells cooked food. Also, my friend recommends the sea urchin. ๐๐ป
