In this Osaka Vlog, we visit Japan’s tallest building (yikes!) before walking through Shinsekai and Den-Den Town (aka Nipponbashi) before trying Osaka’s famous jiggly cheesecake by Rikuro-Ojisan. We apologize for what comes next…

We had no idea Japan’s tallest building was in Osaka at Abeno Harukas (also called Harukas 300)! We knew when we found that out that we had to go up it – and what a view! We were blown away. We managed to find lunch in the basement, which we ate in the nearby Tennoji Park before making a quick visit to the Tennoji Zoo (where Heather studiously avoided the bats).
Afterwards, we walked – A LOT. We emerged from the zoo at Shinsekai, which was pretty busy but not as busy as Nippon Bashi! Where did all these people come from?! From Maid Cafes to Gacha stores to the incredible art, there was no shortage of things to look at! We then returned to Dotonburi to find dinner. It turns out that eating pork buns is really filling! We thought we didn’t have any space left, but were drawn in by the line for cheesecake at Rikuro-Ojisan. This cheesecake didn’t look like anything we’d ever seen before! We’d never heard of Osaka’s “jiggly cheesecake” though now we understand Osaka is kind of famous for it. Since they had a line for fresh-out-of-the-oven cheesecake, we thought it was important to eat it while it was still hot. We apologize for that, Japan!

Love your mask! Where did you find them? Love your travel in Japan can’t wait to see more. Trying to book flights to Japan for next March but they really expensive. Where flights the same?
Love your video! I’m Japanese but never been to Osaka, so there was so much to learn in your video thanks 😊
Btw you can eat while walking in Japan. Many people nowadays do that a lot 😂
Maybe in the past, it was not acceptable but now you can see many businessmen eating on their way to work.
Anyway look forward to the next one!!
you can tick that off your bucket list of things to do now? Eating a giant whole piece of cheesecake!
Welcome to Japan😍 Thank you for your great and fun video💝💞💗
