Why Osaka for a Anniversary Escape trip
Celebrate in Osaka the way locals do: through food. Reserve a high-floor suite in Umeda for sunset views across the city, then book a kappo counter where the chef prepares each course in front of you, or splurge on a Kobe beef dinner. Spend a day at Osaka Castle and its plum and cherry orchards, and walk the illuminated Dotonbori canal after dark for a lively contrast to a quiet dinner.
Osaka is Japan's food capital, a city of neon-lit canals, street stalls and refined kappo counters where chefs cook in front of you. Its luxury hotels occupy skyscrapers in Umeda and along the Nakanoshima riverbanks, offering dramatic views, generous rooms and an ideal base for day trips to Kyoto, Nara and Kobe by fast train.
When to go: March to May and October to November bring mild temperatures and clear skies, with cherry blossoms around Osaka Castle in early April. Summers are hot and very humid, and June is the rainy season.
