OSAKA VLOG: Dotonbori, Lake Ashi, Nara, Osaka Castle & Shinsekai

So pumped to have you guys with me for this Osaka vlog! We’re hitting all the highlights, from Dotonbori and Osaka Castle to Shinsekai and Orange Street. Plus, we squeezed in a couple of awesome day trips to Lake Ashi and Nara. We really made the most of our time here, so I hope this helps if you’re planning a short trip too! I’m also sharing almost all of the places we went for food so if you’re looking for places to eat and where to go I got you.

Our day trip to Nara is all about the essentials – the mochi and the deer! We even took part in a fun little tea ceremony. Honestly, the deer and mochi are enough to experience there. We didn’t find too much else, but keep in mind, it was raining. 🙂

Lake Ashi was stunning, even with zero visibility! It’s definitely a bit of a trek, but totally worth it for the views when the weather cooperates. Let me know if you have any questions or want more info on anything!
