BEST Sushi So Far In Osaka and a Quick Visit to Nara - Japanese Food Travel in Osaka!
► Check out our Osaka Food Guide for details on restaurants in these videos:
On Day 12 in Osaka, Japan, we decided to first take a quick day trip to Nara, a city that’s about a 45 minute train ride from Osaka. We then returned to Osaka, and had some of the finest sushi I had during my trip there.
00:27 Trip to Nara - Nara is an old and historical town in Japan, not far from Osaka and Kyoto. It’s very easy to get there by public transportation. The first thing you’ll notice as soon as you arrive to Nara are the deer - they are free roaming all over the city, and people love to interact with them.
2:48 Todai-ji Temple - 500 JPY ($4.17) - One of the biggest and most famous temples in Nara is the Todai-ji Temple, and although it was intensely busy, we decided to pay the entrance fee and go inside. It was good to see, but it was a very busy day that we visited.
4:09 Lunch at Happoh Restaurant (和食屋 八寶) - After walking around Nara for a while, we headed back towards the train station, and had lunch at a restaurant called Happoh Restaurant (和食屋 八寶). The food was alright, but not the best. We then took the train back to Osaka to do some shopping and eating.
6:15 Tenjinbashisuji Shotengai - Tenjinbashisuji Shotengai is the longest shopping street in Japan, and it goes on for something like 2.6 km. We got back to Osaka, and walked around this area, before eating some amazing sushi.
7:23 Harukoma Sushi (春駒 支店) - While walking around the shopping market, I noticed a line of people, all waiting for a turn to get into Harukoma Sushi (春駒 支店), a famous sushi restaurant in Osaka. I had researched this restaurant and had wanted to eat here, but I didn’t know when we were going to get there, or where it was - but we stumbled into it, and decided to go straight in line to eat there. The sushi turned out to be some of the best sushi I had in Osaka. It wasn’t fancy, but it was good quality, big pieces of sushi and fish, and it felt like we were at a fish market. Awesome sushi, good prices, and friendly service.

That was all for Day 12 in Osaka - it was another good day, and the sushi was the highlight for me.

교토 시내에서 북쪽으로 1시간 떨어진 히로가와 마을로 달려갔다. 17세기 초 에도시대 때부터 시작된 이 축제는 불의 수호신인 아타고 신에게 불을 바쳐 풍작과 화재예방 등을 기원하는 전통적인 행사이다. 70여 가구가 사는 이 마을에서 매년 8월 24일이면 어김없이 이 축제가 펼쳐진다. 각 가정마다 편백나무 33다발을 가지고 와서 불기둥을 만들고 주변을 밝힌다. 편백나무를 끈으로 엮어 불기둥 안으로 던져 넣을 준비를 한다. 마을사람들은 엄숙하고 진지하게 1년간 준비해온 나무 다발에 조심스럽게 불을 붙여 간다. 드디어 20여 미터나 되는 토로기라는 나무 불기둥을 세우고, 불 속에 나무다발을 넣어 불똥을 하늘로 날린다. 토로기 기둥을 쓰러뜨리는 것이 축제의 마지막 의식. “제대로 들어가서 잘 됐네요.” “고맙습니다.”

Kyoto | Adashino Nembutsu-ji Temple, shopping, lunch & Owl/Bengal cat Cafe | Japan Vlog #5
We had such a nice time in Arashiyama, Kyoto. After we visited the Bamboo Forest, we walked up North towards the mountains & found Adashino Nembutsu-ji Temple. Afterwards we went back into Saga-Arashiyama Area which is a long Shopping Street. We had a Tofu based lunch (It wasn't our favourite) & then we found an Owl retreat/Bengal cat cafe.
Sakura Hotspots in Kyoto2013!
In Japan, cherry blossoms also symbolise clouds due to their nature of blooming en masse, besides being an enduring metaphor for the ephemeral nature of life, an aspect of Japanese cultural tradition that is often associated with Buddhistic influence, and which is embodied in the concept of mono no aware. The association of the cherry blossom with mono no aware dates back to 18th-century scholar Motoori Norinaga. The transience of the blossoms, the extreme beauty and quick death, has often been associated with mortality; for this reason, cherry blossoms are richly symbolic, and have been utilised often in Japanese art, manga, anime, and film, as well as at musical performances for ambient effect. There is at least one popular folk song, originally meant for the shakuhachi (bamboo flute), titled Sakura, and several pop songs.
here's a little poem by Saigyo: Sleeping under the trees on Yoshino mountain, The spring breeze wearing Cherry blossom petals.

When clouds ruin your star trails
Sometimes all you wanna do is photograph the stars moving through the night sky. But sometimes the clouds ignore the weather forecast, and come spoil your evening.
The bright moon didn't help either.
Ah, but it was a fun excursion to an obscure spot half an hour away from tiny Hirokawa Beach train station in Wakayama, Japan. And hey, BGs and the scrappy mountain dinner were ok.
Plus I managed not to get attacked by gigantic frogs, or shot by the nearby valley people.
