Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Shinsekai, 1 Ebisuhigashi, Naniwaku, Osaka 556-0002 Osaka Prefecture
This suburb is a bright burst of colour into anyone’s life. Famous for being Osaka’s ‘old downtown district’, it carries an air of nostalgia through its retro-style stalls and shops which often has visitors stopping at the displays and mascots out front just to take photos. It’s definitely considered one of the best photo spots in towns simply because a). It’s so visually crazy and appealing, and b). There are so many photo opportunities everywhere. Don’t forget to also try and capture an image of Tsutenkaku Tower, which is considered the unofficial symbol of Shinsekai!
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Osaka Castle, 1-1 Osakajo, Chuo, Osaka 540-0002 Osaka Prefecture
This visually stunning castle will take your breath away from the moment you lay eyes on it. Surprisingly, one of the things that make this place stand out is the fact that it’s surrounded by metropolitan buildings. Because of this uniqueness in location, this castle appears to be that much more special.
Duration: 1 minute
Stop At: Dotombori District, Chuo-ku, Dotombori, Chuo, Osaka 542-0076 Osaka Prefecture
Known as the entertainment district of Osaka, most tourists visiting Osaka will likely be staying in or around Dontonburi street, making it one of the easiest photo opportunities in Osaka! Dontonburi street runs parallel to the Dontonburi Canal, so you can make your way up one route and down the other quite easily. The street itself is a colourful amalgamation of bright neon lights, flashing billboard advertisements, and a multitude of bars, restaurants and street stalls.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Namba, Namba, Chuo, Osaka, Osaka Prefecture, Kinki
Namba is one of the two biggest and busiest stations in Osaka and you most probably won’t avoid it when visiting this city. It is not only a station, but the whole maze of covered shopping arcades, shopping malls, underground eateries and there’s also a park and a garden on its roof! The area around Namba has a long history and famous Dotombori is also located nearby. Once you are exploring this area, keep your eyes open for small hidden back alleys, called yokocho in Japanese. You will discover a different, calmer and more authentic world of old Osaka, where it feels like the time just stopped. My favourite alley is called Hozenji Yokocho, where you can also find small mysterious Hozenji Temple with moss-covered statues. best photography spots in osaka
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: 1-11-18 Shitennoji, Tennoji-Ku, Osaka 543-0051 Osaka Prefecture
As one of Japan’s oldest temples ever, you’d be surprised at just how well-maintained and stunning this temple is. Don’t be fooled though, the building structures of this temple have actually been burnt down a few times in the past few centuries, however, every single time it has not failed to be carefully re-constructed to replicate its original 6th century design.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Umeda Sky Building, 1-1-88 Oyodonaka Kitaku, Osaka 531-6023 Osaka Prefecture
As with most cities in Japan, Osaka boasts quite an impressive skyrise building that has an observation deck which offers a sweeping view of the city. It’s 173m tall and also hosts a busy and entertaining restaurant floor that resembles a town in the early Showa Period – very historic!
