Osaka

How to get around

Osaka is served by Kansai International Airport, located on an artificial island about 40 kilometers from the city center. Getting to Osaka from the airport is quick and easy. The most convenient option is the train: the JR Haruka line connects the airport directly with Tennoji Station and other central stops. A ticket costs around 2,000 yen, just over 12 euros. Alternatively, there are direct buses and taxis available at varying prices. Once in the city, getting around is simple thanks to the subway system, which includes 9 lines covering the entire urban area.

Typical bars and restaurants

For those seeking international flavors, two neighborhoods are a must: Shinsaibashi and Umeda. In these areas, it's easy to find restaurants offering international cuisine and English menus. On the other hand, if you want to experience authentic local food, spend your evening in Dotonbori—an iconic district filled with traditional eateries. Recommended spots include Mizuno for okonomiyaki, Kukuru for takoyaki, Harukoma Sushi in Tenjinbashi, and Tsurutontan, famous for its generously portioned udon served in large bowls.
