The highlight of this tour is that you can enjoy both sightseeing and cultural experiences in Osaka all in one day. In the morning, we visit Osaka Castle, a historic site with over 400 years of history. Feel its powerful presence as I share stories of its past and cultural importance. For lunch, we head to Shinsekai, a retro area full of local charm. We enjoy kushikatsu hopping—visiting multiple shops like the locals do. Don’t forget the “no double-dipping” rule! In the afternoon, we walk through the Tennoji area to Shitennoji Temple, one of the oldest temples in Japan, founded in 593. Before entering, we take a break at a nearby teahouse and enjoy traditional tea and sweets. (Included in the tour price.) Then we explore the peaceful temple grounds, where you’ll feel the deep spiritual atmosphere. You’ll also see the Golden Pavilion, home to the statues of the Four Heavenly Kings, and learn about the legacy of Prince Shotoku. It’s a calm and meaningful way to end your day in Osaka.
