We’re here for our honeymoon. We have so far been to Tokyo, Takayama, and Kyoto and I feel like this has been the worst part of the trip! I think I made a huge mistake picking a hotel near Dotonbori. It’s so dirty, crowded, loud and smelly. The river is disgusting and filled with trash. The other tourists are so rude, and there’s throngs of young adults/teens milling around at all hours; smoking, drinking and littering everywhere.
We did find some good local places to eat and the shopping has not been disappointing, but everything else has been 🙁 it’s almost worse than being in Times Square in New York!! We’re heading to Nara tomorrow for the day and I’m excited for that but we have until the 15th here and I’m just feeling so defeated and glum. It’s our honeymoon and my husband’s first time out of the country, and I feel like coming here was just a huge miss.
Open to recommendations but really just wanted to vent a little bit. We head back to Tokyo on the 15th and leave to go home on the 17th…hoping we can salvage the last leg of what has otherwise been a magical and life-changing trip…
