Is your phone filled with inspirational travel quotes? Does the airport make you as excited as a 5-year-old on Christmas day? You’re a travel junkie, and it’s time to get your next hit in Minami, Osaka! Around 2,600,000 people inhabit this thriving metropolis, a popular holiday spot for travel junkies like yourself. To reach Minami from Itami Airport, find a taxi and travel southeast for 14 kilometres. You'll find this neighbourhood 3 kilometres south of central Osaka.

A good number of this city's leading sights are scattered near Minami, and the Osaka Science Museum and Osaka Takoyaki Museum are two of the very best. You should also be sure to pay a visit to Osaka Castle and Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan. While you're in town, consider stopping by a few other neighbourhoods to taste more of what Osaka offers. Soemon-cho and Dotonbori are good recommendations that are nearby.

There are countless reasons why so many travellers make a beeline for the city centre. Universal Studios Japan® and Tsutenkaku Tower are two of the best of them. You'd be crazy to head back to your hotel without dropping into Shinsaibashi Shopping Arcade and the Osaka Museum of History as well.

The Namba Grand Kagetsu Theater and Video Game Bar Space Station are ideal for those without the kids in tow.

The area's numerous cultural places, such as the Osaka Museum of Housing and Living and the Glico Man Sign, cannot be missed!

If you have a love of art, you shouldn't miss the Osaka National Museum of Art, the Osaka Museum of Oriental Ceramics, the Osaka City Museum of Fine Art and the Kamigata Ukiyoe Museum. Take a look around and if one of the pieces speaks volumes to you, ask the staff for information about its creator.

Look closely into the glass cabinets and learn about the artefacts on display as you walk through the intriguing collections of Osaka Culturarium Tempozan, the Osaka International Peace Center, the Museum of Natural History and the Liberty Osaka.

What better way to end a day's activities than with dinner, drinks and a good performance? Check the programme at Symphony Hall, the Festival Hall, the Umeda Koma and Osaka Symphony Hall.

Kids are often excellent travel buddies, particularly if you go to awesome places! For a memorable family outing, take a trip to the Kids Plaza Osaka, the Osaka Public Nakanoshima Library, the Legoland Discovery Center and Osaka Aquarium.

Are you holidaying with the kids but stuck for ideas of things to keep them amused? The Tempozan Harbor Village Ferris Wheel, Umeda Joypolis Sega Fun Park, the Tempozan Ferris Wheel and the Giant Ferris Wheel are some nearby places the whole family can enjoy.

If you're blessed with amazing weather, fill your body with fresh air and revel in nature at the Osaka Castle Park, Floating Garden Observatory, Mount Tempozan and the Taiko En.

A special feature of this suburb is its nearby green spaces. In the midst of all the activity, there are plenty of spots to relax and read the newspaper. Sumiyoshi Park, Nakanoshima Park, Tennoji Park and Utsubo Park are some good options.

Nothing beats indulging in some shopping. Give your wallet a workout at Grand Front Osaka Mall, HEP Five Shopping Mall, Kuromon Ichiba Mall and Osaka Central Wholesale Market.
