Guidelines

by ryu45

If you are new to Japan, its recomended to learn its guideline in dealing in an specific subject or things, sense Japan is so high standard in each services and products, very refine culture, and strict implementing rules and laws.,from finding a place to stay and knowing some entiresting things to do and places to go... Every cities in Japan has each International Friendship and Cooperation Center where you can ask pamplets and guide books (provided for free). The center is easy to find because it is usually located within the premises of the city hall.most of all prepare, a pocket dictionary, and usefull phrases must be memorized with proper accent before heading to your destination.

Onsen: Sun Hill Hannan

by CO-Chad

Senshu (southern Osaka-fu) is home to numerous onsen (natural hot springs). Sun Hill Hannan is a hotel in southern Senshu, midway between Osaka and Wakayama. The baths feature a view of Osaka bay, Awaji island, and Kansai airport. The water is reputed to be high thoron, which is in turn reputed to cure whatever ails you.I was a bit disappointed that there was no ro-ten-buro (outdoor tub), and it was difficult to cool down in the hot moist air around the baths. There is a regular bath and a whirlpool (though the latter smelled suspiciously of chlorine). Hotel rooms start at Y6900 per night, or the bath alone is Y500. The hotel also features a driving range, tennis courts, and restaurant. Still, for a bath alone, I would recommend Honoji no Sato or Inunakiyama (both around Y600) as a nicer alternative.Telephone the hotel from Hakotsukuri station (Nankai) and they will pick you up....

Nishikinohama Beach

by Nichola1

This is actually in Kaizuka city, but it`s still in Osaka prefecture. It is only four stops from the airport, which is quite a bit south of the city. You can take the Nankai line (maybe about Y600 from Namba). It`s a nice beach, but like all beaches in Japan, it shuts down at the end of the `season`, even if it is still hot (so be prepared for vending machines and that is all). There is a mall nearby if you want food (Costa Mall) - it even has Max Valu!!!Be careful because the station is a local station - if you get any of the express trains, they wont stop there. But, you can catch an express and get off at Kaizuka, which was maybe one or two stops before, and then change there to a local train.The beach has a bit of seaweed on it, but rubbish wise it is very clean.

checking the place out

by ryu45

after making rest, ask the hotel information the direction of the city hall. its a walking distance. , with in the city hall premises there is always a tourist info center where you can rent a bicycle to roam around. bike is so significant going nearby historical and interesting places with out so much fear with violation compared to renting car. renting car is easy but parking violation etc, is dificult. car parking fees are expensive same thing with penalties,. going places is good by train, a lot of things and places to see.

by gogonicetrip

On the fifth floor observation deck of Tutenkaku is enshrined Billiken, the God of Happiness or things as they ought to be Billiken, a popular America charm doll that came to Japan in about 1910, was enshrined within Luna Park when it opened. When the park was closed in 1923, the wooden statue of Billiken went missing.As a part of an effort to revive the tower, a copy of Billiken was made from an old photograph and placed inside the tower in 1979. The statue of Billiken has became closely associated with the tower and is a popular symbol of good luck. Each year thousands of visitors place a coin in his donation box and rub the soles of his feet to make their wishes come true.[Back to Osaka-fu]

Landmark tower, Tutenkaku

by gogonicetrip

Tsutenkaku means Tower Reaching Heaven, is a well-known landmark tower of Osaka.Its total height is 103 m, the main observation deck is at a height of 91 m.The current tower is actually the second to occupy the site. The original tower, patterned after the Eiffel Tower, was built in 1912, and was connected to the adjacent amusement park, Luna Park, by an aerial cable car. It quickly became one of the most popular locations in the city, drawing visitors from all over the area. The Japanese government dismantled the tower in 1943, believing that it would serve as a reference point for American bombing raids on Osaka: the iron in the tower was melted down and used for war material.After the war citizens lobbied to rebuild the beloved tower. A private company, the Tsutenkaku Kanko Co. Ltd. was established and in 1956, the second-generation tower was opened.[Back to Osaka-fu]
