Basic Osaka and Japan Info

Osaka is a melting pot of cultures, ideas, and personalities, all of which stem from its history as Japan’s center of commerce and culture. Today known as the Nation’s Kitchen for its hearty food culture, Osaka is Japan’s friendliest city and the country’s top spot to eat, drink, and party. Filled with comedy-loving, friendly locals, Osaka is Japan's second smallest prefecture by size but is the third most populous after Tokyo.
