大阪市

My first visit to Japan landed me here. Perhaps it’s the feeling it gives in contrast to what I have read over the internet, it is more of an historical conurbation than a metropolitan city. The Osaka palace is a place of tranquility. Get a beer and a box of huge sized Takoyaki, and you are all ready to sit under the cherry blossoms tree for a good afternoon.
Apart from that, Osaka took every part of a Japanese culture and you can see this as you make your way through the city – Vending Machines.
Shop spaces are leased for a whole purpose of building Vending machines in it. You will see a Ramen stall tend by a cook, and he refuse to take orders, because, right outside the stall stands a Vending Machine!
