Here are some of the places we will be going:
Osaka! Osaka is so much fun. There is so much great food and shopping here!
We will be going to Shinsaibashi Shoutengai, a covered shopping area. Here you will find lots of claw machines, Purikura machines, shopping, and food!
This is Dotonburi. There are tons of great food places. This picture has the famous moving crab place. We will be having dinner here at an all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant. Yum!
Some of the meals will be included in the trip price, like dinner and all-you-can drink at Christon Café, one of Japan’s most fascinating “theme bar/restaurants”—it's full of Christian religious art, like Jesus paintings, crucifixes, and so on, apparently taken from churches in Europe.
We will be taking a tour to Kyoto and visit the Golden Pavilion (pictured below), Nijo Castle, and Kyoto Imperial Palace.
Then we will take a trip to Kiyomizu for shopping, tofu donut tasting and jumping pictures. Kiyomizu-dera is a Kitahossou Buddhist temple in eastern Kyoto. No nails were used to build it….and we will head to downtown Kyoto and have a traditional Kyoto-style dinner.
We will also be visiting Amerikamura, the cool, hip street in Osaka, where you will find lots of Japanese street fashion like Lolita, Punk, and Gyaru.
We will also be going to Kobe for a traditional Kobe lunch (yes, Kobe beef included), and check out Mosaic Harbor for shopping.
And an optional trip to Nara to tour some temples and feed friendly deer that will follow you if you feed them.
