Osaka’s nickname, “Tenka no Daidokoro” (the nation’s kitchen), originally referred to its historical status as Japan’s rice-trade hub. Although no longer the hub for rice trade, Osaka is now known for being the food capital of Japan. Okonomiyaki, takoyaki, and kushikatsu are well-known Osaka dishes, but there are many more delicious foods to try while there. I personally love Osaka because the people are kind and outgoing, and the city itself has a lot to offer for visitors.

Dotonbori Glico Sign

A famous landmark, it went from just paper print to digital. This sign is located on the river pathways of Dotonbori, and exploring this river way at night time (or during a rainy evening) is pretty awesome. Neon reflection overload! 

The most iconic billboard of Osaka, for its famous pose.
