Hello, me and my friends planning to come to Osaka this 25th Oct till 3rd Nov. As we're from Malaysia, I'm hoping to find a cheap place to stay that's near public transportation. Any helps is appreciated, thank you in advance.

hello! i'll be visiting Osaka from April 26 to May 2 and just wanted to check if there are any current concerns regarding earthquakes or tsunami warnings. just feeling a bit anxious after seeing some news..

would appreciate any local insights or updates. thank you 🙏

My brother is going to Osaka tomorrow (traveling from Tokyo by train), and it will be his birthday. I'm in the US, and I'm trying to figure out something nice that I could do from here, like maybe find a nice restaurant (more authentic than touristy if possible) from which I can buy a gift card online, and then he can just go get dinner! Do you have any recommendations?

Or do you have other ideas of nice things I could do at a distance, but that would be a surprise for him there? Like a ticket for something to visit, or something else? He generally prefers savory than sweet food. He'll be there for a few days I think.

Thanks!

Hi everyone! My son and I will be traveling to Japan this summer. We will be headed to Osaka from Nagoya and then we will be traveling to Hiroshima. We will be staying in the Osaka area for 3 nights. While there we plan on visiting Kyoto and Nara as well. Given this, what area would be best for us to look for a hotel? TIA!

Hi everyone! My wife and I are in Osaka for the next 5 weeks. We have an awesome airbnb with a kitchen that we want to take full advantage of.

I’ve been looking for a cooking class that focuses on home cooking possibly paired with a grocery store trip as the selections are so different. However, most of the cooking classes are focused on just a few classic food items that don’t feel like everyday cooking (ramen, sushi, etc.)

If anyone has similar tours or knows anyone who’d be willing to help (happy to pay) that would be awesome.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hi everyone. I have collected heaps of coins over my stay in Osaka and was wondering where the best place is to exchange my coins for notes?

Thank you

If you had to pick one place for a devil went down to Georgia style cook-off, who would you want making the chicken Nan ban? Also, any other places that you think are absolutely number one for any of your favorite foods would be great. Thank you!

What is a piece of Osaka local history or a local story that is well-known by residents but isn't in the mainstream around the world? I'm looking for urban myths, local lore, folklore and such, for a book I'm writing. Thanks!
