I went sightseeing in Osaka and Kyoto in three days from January 5 to 7, 2024. First, I went to Osaka on the first day. In Osaka, I went to Dotonbori for a food tour. Since it was my first time in Dotonbori, I wanted to eat something typical of Osaka, so I tried takoyaki from various restaurants. I especially enjoyed the takoyaki that contained a whole octopus. Walking around Dotonbori, I also discovered a few things: First, there are many three-dimensional signs. The second was that there was one store that offered shooting gallery, which is usually found at festival stalls. It was the first time for me to see a shooting gallery store that was not a food stall, so it was a new experience for me. I also visited Kaiyukan. Like Dotonbori, Kaiyukan was also a place I visited for the first time. The Kaiyukan is a large vertical building, and as I walked deeper and deeper into the basement to look at the fish, I felt as if I was gradually sinking into the deep sea, which was a strange sensation. Next, on the second day, we went to Universal Studios Japan. I love roller coasters, so I mainly rode them. However, due to the fatigue from sightseeing in Osaka the day before, my legs got tired early on, and I was not able to do as much as I wanted, taking many breaks at cafes and restaurants. By the end, my legs were too sore to walk, but I was able to ride it with little waiting time when the park closed. On the third day, we went to Arashiyama, Kiyomizu-dera Temple, and Fushimi Inari-taisha. However, we were not able to see Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Fushimi Inari-taisha as much as we would have liked because we had to start at noon and it was late in the day. I think it was not a very well-planned sightseeing tour, but it was very enjoyable to go sightseeing with friend.
