Osaka really shines in the dark alleys! In the day light it can often seen grey and plain, but if you get the chance to visit, make sure to get out at night to see some of these magical scenes!
Festive seeming lanterns for a grilled chicken restaurant.
One of many standing bars, great places to meet and chat with local people!
An interestingly pink alley... there's a snack bar at the end where you can pay too much for drinks and some light food maybe even karaoke. I recommend the standing bars, though cheaper and more interesting in my opinion!
