Osaka can also be regarded as a shopping paradise. The luxury goods here are very rich and the prices are relatively reasonable. There are also a variety of high-quality Japanese products, making your shopping experience more comfortable and secure. The food here is It is also quite perfect. Let me share with you the latest version of the 2017 must-buy list for travel and shopping in Osaka, Japan.

Three days in Osaka and four days in Tokyo

We bought ANA’s air tickets two months in advance because we wanted to try their in-flight meals and it did not disappoint

< p>For accommodation, we choose airbnb, and we can choose to book on Taobao, which gives us a huge discount!

It’s already 7 o’clock Japan time on the first day when we arrive in Osaka. Our B&B is near Shinsaibashi, and we can go directly to it by taking the Nankai Electric Railway. convenient.

Osaka is all about shopping. When you go to Takashimaya in Osaka, you must first get a hellokitty card with your passport. You can get a 15% discount! Then you start shopping. Most brands are available

laduree didn’t go to Umeda. Children's clothing mikihouse is on the fifth floor. It seems that I went shopping in Dotonbori at night. There is a cosme store there. You can buy items that are highly ranked in the Daesang. I bought Naris's spray there.

It is recommended to go at night. Shopping because it opens quite late at night. I also went shopping at Don Quixote. Anyway, there is a 24-hour Chinese shopping guide in Dotonbori. The store in Dotonbori is particularly large and has several floors where you can buy a lot of beautiful contact lenses, so be patient and look for them

In fact, you can find a lot!

There are various kinds of cosmeceuticals in Shinsaibashi, but I think they are all similar. But others say that the cosmeceuticals in Osaka are cheaper than those in Tokyo. After my comparison, I did not find that it feels almost the same and some are still cheaper in Tokyo

The Shinkansen is very expensive to go to Tokyo, so we choose to fly from Kansai to Haneda

We live in Tokyo and Shinjuku, so it is very convenient! The Shinkansen should cost 100. We chose an ANA flight for 500 each. The luggage allowance is also very large

This is what I would like to recommend to everyone! It is very convenient to order this from Taobao

1. RinkuPremiumOutlets

I recommend it to everyone After landing at Kansai Airport, go directly to Rinku Premium Outlets. Do not go back to the hotel first and then go back to the outlet.

Why? Because Outlet is only one station away from Kansai Airport, and there is a bus to the airport. If you live in Namba or Shinsaibashi, it will take too much time to go back to the hotel first and then go shopping at the outlet, and the Nankai Electric Railway fare is not cheap.

Don’t want to go shopping with your luggage? Outlet has self-service lockers when you enter the store, so don’t worry.

Outlet has 200 stores, large and small. Although there are no first-line international brands like Gucci, LV, and Prada, there are Dolce&Gabbana, Armani

, Coach, Salvatore Ferragamo, Dunhil, Kate Spade, etc. These famous stores still exist.

If you are not interested in famous brands, some popular brands and their super affordable prices will make your eyes shine.

Be sure to remember to bring your passport when shopping, and you can get a tax refund if you spend over 5,000. And remember to go to the customer service center to show your passport before shopping. You can also receive discount coupons. Brother Xun recommends shopping within 4-5 hours to ensure that you come home with a full load.

I would also like to focus on luggage storage. Some people who have to leave on the last day or go shopping with their suitcases may find it very inconvenient

There are many storage places at the station. For example, Namba Station is very close to Shinsaibashi and Dotonbori. If you find it inconvenient when shopping, Osaka Takashimaya has a free storage place. You can go to the counter and ask which floor it is on!

Write first It’s my first time here in Osaka and I’m a little unfamiliar

Tokyo is relatively familiar and I look forward to my guide on Tokyo. They are all interesting places!
