How to get to Hakone from Osaka?

Shinkansen to Odawara and then buy Hakone Pass

What do I need to know before visiting Osaka?

Hello, I am very happy to answer your questions. The weather in Osaka changed little in October, and the temperature was around 28°C/14°C. There was some wind in the evening. Items that are needed for normal travel are recommended. It is recommended to bring sunscreen and umbrellas with no need to buy them. Although Osaka is sometimes very sun-baked (I have been sunburned for six days, but it doesn't feel very hot). If you bring an old man, you are advised to go to Osaka Castle Park, Castle Tower, Kyoto, Nara is best for the elderly.

Osaka Travel Guide

Osaka is the center of Japan’s Western region, known for being a hub of gourmet cooking, the nation’s water capital and the “Vice President” of Japan’s cities. A symbol of the metropolis, Osaka Castle is a must-see attraction that is representative of the continuous historical changes in the city. Universal Studios is another destination well worth a visit, with its Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Minions and Sesame Street attractions all waiting for a fun-filled family visit. If you’ve got a small child in tow, fun awaits at the mysterious underwater world at Osaka Aquarium, or the nearby Tempozan Ferris Wheel from the top of which you can get a beautiful view of Osaka Bay. In terms of shopping, Osaka Umeda District in the north, Namba in the south, along with Shinsaibashi and Midosuji offer endless stores and malls to discover. Be sure to visit a couple times in case you miss something your first time in Osaka.
