I went to Osaka with zach this weekend. I noticed that I've been to Osaka many times but didn't go to popular places which are usually on guidebooks. This time, I went to popular sightseeing spots. Since it was weekend, most of the places we went were so crowded.

The entrance of Osaka Castle


Osaka Castle


Castle was huge!


We went up the castle. The view from there was awesome!


Osaka has an American Village. There were many American shops and Japanese people who were walking down the streets with dressing up like Americans.


The best part was we found the Turkish restaurant very close to American Village. This is the soup which had rice and mint in it. It was creamy and very new to me.


I forgot to take a picuture of main dish we had.. It was the first time for me to have sis kababi and lamb. This is how the Turkish chef made a sis kababi. sorry that this is not a good picture...


This is the dessert. The custard pudding had rice in it.


Next day, we went to Nanba where the famous statue is. Of course, it was moving!
