Osaka Solo Weekend

MAY 6-11, 2026 · FOOD · ANIME · FUTURISM · RELAXATION
Post-Golden Week timing: fewer crowds, warm 23°C days, Nakanoshima roses at peak bloom. Your backup itinerary for when David and Fil have their own plans.
Decompress between meals. Hotel bath is your default; sentos are for the deeper soak; coffee shops and Hozenji Yokocho for the in-between hours.
