"Osaka in Spring
Here are five places you should consider including in your itinerary when visiting Osaka in April to see cherry blossoms (sakura):
📍Osaka Castle Park: Osaka Castle Park is one of the most iconic spots in the city for cherry blossoms. The park is filled with hundreds of cherry trees, and you can enjoy hanami (cherry blossom viewing) while exploring the historic Osaka Castle.
📍Kema Sakuranomiya Park: This riverside park offers stunning views of cherry blossoms along the Okawa River. You can take a leisurely stroll, rent a boat, or have a picnic while surrounded by the beautiful sakura.
📍Katsuo-ji Temple: Located in the hills just outside Osaka, Katsuo-ji Temple is a hidden gem for cherry blossoms. The temple grounds are adorned with cherry trees, creating a tranquil and picturesque atmosphere.
Minoo Park: While primarily known for its waterfall, Minoo Park is also a fantastic spot to see cherry blossoms. You can enjoy a scenic hike through the park while admiring the sakura along the way.
📍Expo '70 Commemorative Park: This park was the site of the 1970 World Exposition and features various attractions and beautiful cherry blossoms in April. It's an excellent place to combine history and nature during your visit to Osaka.
These locations offer a mix of urban and natural settings, providing a well-rounded cherry blossom experience during your visit in April."

"🇬🇧 The third most populated city in Japan (after Tokyo and Yokohama) is full of delicious food!
You can visit the main spots, but Osaka is also where Taro Okamoto's Tower of the Sun is located, and very close to the city there's also one of the prettiest waterfalls in all of Japan! 🌿

🇪🇸 Se trata de la tercera ciudad más poblada de Japón (tras Tokio y Yokohama), ¡y es conocida por tener muy buena comida!
Puedes visitar los lugares principales, pero Osaka es también donde se encuentra la Torre del Sol de Taro Okamoto, ¡y la ciudad se encuentra muy cerca de una de las cascadas más hermosas de Japón! 🌿"
