Osaka

We only spent two nights in this charming laid back metropolis. The restaurant fronts are so colorful that I am drawn to capture them in images.

One of the world’s largest ferris wheels is located on the 8th floor of a mall in the center of Osaka. For 500 yen you can slowly rise 112 meters above it all in an air conditioned capsule.

Vintage and used designer clothing is supremely popular in Osaka. The stores are very curated and arranged artfully and with care. There are also stores that specialize in American t-shirts and Hawaiian shirts. La Fitness is cool if written in English.

Ultramodern architecture mixed with traditional laterns.

Restaurant store fronts with plastic food and photos that guide you through the menu. Very important when you cannot read Japanese.

Fun figuring out this meal ticket:)
