Osaka Off - the - Beaten - Path Itinerary

Nakanojima 🖤 The Pinnacle of Architectural Aesthetics 🏷️ Day 2️⃣ Itinerary 📍 Mont - Royal Hotel 🏨 - Umeda Hanshin Department Store - LUCUA 1100 - Nakanojima Museum of Art - National Museum of Art - Science Museum - Bank of Japan Osaka Branch - Tenjinbashisuji Market On the second day in Osaka,we woke up to see a church standing tall in the gray misty rain. 🌧️ 🌸🍃 The sky was so gloomy,and the whole world seemed to dim along with it. On our way from the hotel to Hankyu,we saw people hurrying through the gray landscape,with only occasional bright colors keeping me from feeling dazed. The architectural style in Umeda suddenly became grand,like a huge forest of steel and concrete,and I felt like a lost dwarf wandering through it. 🌿 🌸🍃 Fortunately, after crossing the pedestrian bridge over Osaka Station and walking through the Takashimaya department store,we stumbled upon a very popular dessert shop. 📍 Grenier The pastries were so crispy they seemed to take flight, and the tea was perfectly matched. The cream part was not greasy at all. Even the pigeons went crazy for it! 🌸🍃 We leaned against the shop sign, enjoying our desserts 🍮 and feeding the pigeons,with the red Ferris wheel of Umeda visible above us. 🎡 It was truly a moment worth lingering in 💖 LUCUA 1100 was such a great place to explore. 🌸🍃 With Hankyu and Daimaru nearby, I almost gave up on visiting them. As the sun was about to set, we hurried towards Nakanojima. 🌇 #Osaka
