Osaka Water Bus - A supremely beautiful journey
❤Recommended reason:
Take the water bus to see the cherry blossoms at Osaka Castle, find a quaint little shop on the riverside, dine elegantly, and then hand in hand, we go to see the night cherry blossoms at the Mint Bureau
Hand in hand
One step, two steps, three steps, four steps looking at the sky
Watching the stars one, two, three, four forming a line
Wouldn't you want to experience such supremely beautiful romance?
👍Most recommended:
√Osaka Round Tour Pass
This not only allows unlimited rides on Osaka's city subways, municipal buses, and some private railways but also free access to 38 attractions in Osaka!! Like Osaka Park, cruise ships, and Ferris wheels are all available~
Osaka Water Bus Aqua Liner has multiple boarding routes, and tourists can board at any of the four piers, which is convenient and fast, and also allows you to enjoy more beautiful Osaka scenery through different routes.
Passengers can take a boat to enjoy the scenery on both sides of the river. The night view is even more beautiful and is a highly recommended spot.
The whole process takes about an hour, and you can enjoy the natural scenery here.

"Osaka Castle Port"

Eating～Nothing much to recommend
Everyone should pay attention:
Good restaurants need to be booked in advance, ordinary restaurants can just go directly, many restaurants close early in the evening, and the serving is very slow. I feel that the cost of eating in Japan is still very high, and the variety of cuisines is not as good as my foodie empire Besides, the atmosphere is still pretty beautiful.
Alright～Babies, that's it for now.

On the water—what passes by is not the landscape, but your memories
Osaka's AquaLiner water bus is one of the very popular sightseeing tours in Osaka. At first glance, the bus looks like a submarine in the river , and sitting on the bus, looking through the glass windows, you see the river outside fluctuating bit by bit with the 🚤, the 🌸 by the roadside and the city gradually receding, it feels like watching 'The Unbearable Lightness of Being' as the landscape slowly merges with emotions. What passes by is not the landscape, but your own memories, bit by bit they pass and can never return. There's a question, what is something that can never come back? Is it time? Is it loved ones? Or is it one's own passion? I believe none of these are complete, I think it's the end, once it's over, it can never return, the disappearing landscapes step by step, like things that have ended and can never come back.
I wish everyone to seize every moment around them 🎈
As a 🚰 city, Osaka has hundreds of bridges and rivers, forming numerous water sightseeing routes.
The Osaka AquaLiner water bus has 4 main piers: Osaka Castle Port, Hachikenya Hama Pier, Yodoyabashi Port, and OAP Port, offering views of the cityscape from Osaka to Nakanoshima. (If you come during the cherry blossom season, the 🌸 along both banks of the river are incredibly beautiful)
The Osaka AquaLiner has multiple boarding routes, and tourists can board at any of the 4 piers.
🚌 Don't worry about not having enough seats or not making it in time (the Osaka AquaLiner is actually a cruise-like mode of transportation that can accommodate hundreds of passengers). The whole process takes about an hour, during which you can enjoy the cityscape and natural scenery here.
⚠️ Boarding locations: 'Osaka Castle Port', 'Hachikenya Hama Pier', 'Yodoyabashi Port', 'OAP Port' - any one of these is fine
Tour duration: About 40 minutes
Operating hours: Osaka Castle Port 10:15~16:15 (Friday, Saturday, Sunday only: 17:20/18:05/18:50)
🎟Tips
Items to purchase in advance:
1. SIM card
2. IC card
3. Recommended to buy a two-day pass (you can go to many places and take some buses and subways for free)
4. Kimono experience at Kiyomizu Temple (don't say I'm not patriotic, it's just experiencing different cultural features)
5. Hotel reservation (better location)
5. Selfie stick (highly recommended, very useful in many places, just a few tens of yuan, very practical)
