[Music] [Music] what's up explorers welcome back to our Channel with the choose here from choose to explore where we teach you guys how to see the world and stay out so we just came from an amazing 3 days in Tokyo where we explored and did so much we even went to Mount Fuji but that's on our previous video now we just took a overnight bus from Tokyo to Osaka it was only $17 and it was about 8 hours we opted to do that instead of the Osaka bullet train so we're here as you can tell it's still dark outside it's 5:30 in the morning and we got a lot planned for this day in Osaka so all day we're going to be out and exploring so if you want to know what to do in Osaka and how to save money stay tuned you don't want to miss this one so right from the bus terminal we walked to the umida train station and here we were able to pick up our Osaka amazing pass now the Osaka amazing PASS gives us entry to over 25 attractions in Osaka and also includes a Metro pass for unlimited rides for the day or two you guys choose and it was only $17 for our day pass so it's see the world save a dollar all the way in Osaka so now let's get out and let's get on the [Music] road so check-in is not until 4:00 in the afternoon and right now it's like 8:00 in the morning so we weren't able to check in but we freshen it up changed our clothes and now we're getting ready to get the day started started first thing on our day is the Osaka Castle it's about a 20 minute walk from where our place is so let's [Music] go so one thing about Japan is a lot of things don't open really early so we actually were walking to the Osaka castle and we found this restaurant called yayoi I think um and it was really cool cuz it open at 7:00 a.m. and they have a lot of different foods so I actually got a hamburger steak I got shrimp I got chicken um miso soup and rice yes I got the Miso soup and french fries but the cool thing about the rice is that they have free refills so I kept getting a whole bunch of free refills on his rice and you add the soy sauce and it was really good that Rice machine was so cool you literally just hit the button and it distributes the rice as much rice as you want which is crazy you don't have to wait you literally just hit the button you don't have to communicate with the waiters you really just order your food through a kiosk so it's really simple and easy [Music] okay and the first thing that we stop at is the Osaka Castle garden and there is only one entrance and one exit to the garden and you cannot enter the main Castle through this area but it was free with our amazing Osaka pass so let's go through and explore while we're here so we walked around majority of the park it's beautiful to see the full foliage right now but to be a garden there isn't a lot of flowers or it's just a lot of trees and grass it's mostly open Green Space there's like um schools here bringing little kids to have picnics or I don't know field trips so it's really just an open area see the world save a dollar save your dollar here just go to the castle unless you want to see amazing views of Osaka Castle because there are great views of it there but I don't think it's really worth it to pay extra so it's about 600 yen in order to enter the Osaka Castle but if you have the amazing Japan pass that we're talking about it's free entry as well as it saves you about 30 minutes waiting in that line depending on the time of the day so be sure to get that and let's enter the [Music] castle all right and we made it here all the way to the eighth floor we decided to take the stairs and not the elevator and live do you regret it I don't well pretty much if you take the elevator it takes you directly to the fifth floor so you'd miss out on a couple of floors also there's also another elevator that will take you all the way up to the eighth floor so the elevator is only for specific floors um but at the top on the eighth floor there's beautiful panoramic views of the whole city so it's definitely a must visit if you guys are in old soccer and if you want to learn any more details check out our article on our website chex.com [Music] and it was a nice beautiful about 10 15 minute walk from the Osaka castle and we made it here to the aqua liner which is one again free with our Osaka amazing pass and otherwise it would be $1,600 Yen which is like $10 but this is a beautiful scenic boat so let's go so we just got through with the aqual liner which is a really cool boat that sails along the river it has uh Windows above on the ceilings as well as all around your side so you get pretty cool panoramic views of everything along Osaka City and it was about 40 minutes long and I really enjoyed it it was a great time to rest and enjoy the views there's a similar experience that's right around the Osaka Castle but that one was sold out for a couple of hours but I was happy with this [Music] one all right so we out here in Japan what y'all think is this a black woman I see the braids see the full lips I think she's black if it's black big up to [Music] [Music] Japan so we just made it up here to the um meta Sky building and this building is phenomenal it's amazing it's two interconnecting skyscrapers that have a crossbridge across and it is beautiful we actually got in here free once again with that Osaka amazing pass so highly recommend that again yeah so it's really cool here you go up an escalator and honestly it made me a little bit nervous cuz I didn't realize how high up we were going to be going but it's really great views as you go up the escalator and then you get up here to I guess this is with the 35th floor now the El escalators take us up to the 40th floor 40th floor okay so we're on the 40th floor right now and there's panoramic views all throughout there's also a little like Cafe area if you want to grab some food and now we're going to go up to the top top and see what we see there let's [Music] go so we just walked up the stairs and we are on top of the Sky Deck it was beautiful cuz we're literally right outside it has beautiful panamic views and I definitely recommend this one guys yeah it's really nice to see all the views of Osaka up here and I think you should come even if you're afraid of heights cuz it's really not that scary um what's really cool about here as well is that it's super secure so you know you're super safe up top here guys so let's go check out these beautiful [Music] views [Music] we just pulled up to haa entertainment Park which we thought was just the ferris wheel but in actuality it's a whole Mall the feris is actually on a seventh floor and there are so many different floors here and it looks like the feris is actually in the middle of the mall so once again let's enjoy this trip [Music] all right so we are here at the he Ferris wheel and LIF I'll let you go first all right so I've never been on a ferris whe before in my life because I've always been afraid and let me tell you I am still afraid okay like this is kind of really scaring me and just talking to the video is making me not think about the fact that I'm in a feris wheel so it's 14 minutes total we just kind of Hit the halfway point we're heading back down now so halfway to the bottom it's it's incredible views but honestly I'm really afraid of heights and I'm I'm kind of scared right now this is actually my first FA whe as well cuz I'm scared of heights it may be difficult for you guys to leave that but I am scared of heights but the thing that I like about this one is it moves so slow so you don't even think that you're even moving like it doesn't feel like you're swinging nothing it's super safe to me yeah doesn't feel like you're moving but I can just see all the skyscrapers go below me as he went up so I'm like that's a little bit scary for me and there's actually an even larger Ferris whe than this one and it's the largest ferris wheel in Japan and you can see it from space so you know we're not going to get on that one um but it's also included in the Osaka pass as well so if you want to try it you can do [Music] that so we just ate at KOCO Ichi Curry House and it was phenomenal amazing Japanese Curry I got the shrimp with the chicken cutlet and it was great I highly recommend it I got the vegetarian Curry and you can add whatever you want to it so I added eggplant and Fin and it was really [Music] good what I love about Japan is just how organized everything everything is like you go right on the train there's lines to where you're supposed to go where you're not supposed to go and this would never happen in New York [Music] city so we just made it here to the Namba yasaka Ginger Shrine and this is a small Shrine one of the smallest that we've seen here but it's a super unique one and super beautiful talk about it with yes so there's actually a lion's head and inside of it there is a stage it was really cool to see really nice come check it out there we [Music] go so we're walking to suen Kaku and it's beautiful streets over here it's about to be sunset said everything is lit up and there's so many beautiful um buildings and a lot of different games and festivals I highly recommend coming over here especially during sunset when everything is lit up here [Music] guys so also included in the amazing Osaka pass is the tower slider and it's a beautiful fun slide right yeah so they were creeping me out they were like happy Halloween and then they shoved me down it was like so much [Applause] [Music] fun I highly recommend doing this one but now we got to go up to the observation deck so let's go [Music] so we made it up to suen Kaku Tower which is one of the tallest Towers in all of Japan and it's beautiful to see this observation deck everything looks so beautiful late at night yeah it's really cool to see the whole city lit up up here there's like a gold theme so everything is gold they even have like the bilans around so it's cool to see you can actually purchase another ticket to go higher up but Liv and I are hype done for the day it's only $2 though it's very feasible so we just walked down the suen Kaku Tower and I'm not going to lie that place they don't want you to leave cuz every time you go down there's something else there's music playing there's a whole lot of things going on but we tried to get down in time to go to the shinai market but it closes at 6:00 so as you can see it's pretty dead right now but usually this is a really Lively area with a lot of great things to eat to see and to do so come check it out before [Music] 6:00 had a good night last night staying at the end hostel it was only $32 a night it's a nice Cen room it has beautiful uh views outside and it's pretty centrally located about like 5 minute walk from the train so highly recommend it at only $32 a night here they have these all over Japan so look at [Music] them so I just got a tayak which is like a kind of like a cakey out inside and a custard on the inside I got a premium custard so it tastes kind like vanilla pudding on the inside and it's very hot and it's really good all right so it's night time here we made it to do tambori which is a world famous area for the bright colors right here in Osaka so let me show you guys what this is like it's so bright this is like Time Square over here all the way in Japan and we are here on Halloween so you see a lot of really cool and interesting costumes so look at these two [Music] guys so coming from New York I'm honestly never really surprised by crowds but what I am surprised by is how respectful this crowd is like if this is New York the last time there was this many people Ka son was in the city everybody went a prison everybody was fighting but this you know people just having fun walking around everybody respectful everybody having a good time so yeah overall look at my man he got a whole boom box on his head but it's a crazy experience but it's time for me to go to my bed but stay tuned because next week we're going to be showing you our experience in Kyoto and so check it [Music] out
