Greetings all, thanks in advance.
I am visiting Osaka on 7 Dec 4pm till 12 Dec Morning.
This is what I have planned in mind:
​
**7 Dec: Thur**
* 6pm arrive
* will be staying at dotonbori, exploring dotonbori area.
​
**8 Dec: Fri**
* Day trip to Nara
​
**9 Dec: Saturday**
* Visiting North Osaka
* Osaka Castle + Osaka Castle Park (Not a must to enter Osaka Castle, since it is just a museum inside)
* Lunch: KIV
* Tenjinbashisuji Shopping Street
* Osaka Tenmangu (Shrine)
* Umeda Sky Building
​
**10 Dec: Sunday**
\- Visiting South Osaka
* Namba Yasaka Shrine
* Central Osaka Shinseka (New World)
* Tsūtenkaku
​
**11 Dec: Monday**
* Universal Studio Japan
​
Some questions:
1. I think I have some issues with 9 Dec and 10 Dec, exploring the city of Osaka itself. Is the splitting of North and South Osaka recommended?
2. I feel like South Osaka – 10 Dec is insufficient. Any recommendations?
3. Any hidden gem food / spot where locals usually go for the places I am visiting. Am a foodie so would love to experience Sashimi, Unagi, Ramen. Sadly i cannot eat beef.
​
Thanks all in advance
