  • Admission ticket included
Katsuo-ji Temple, Japan is a peaceful Buddhist temple nestled in the mountains of northern Osaka. Famous for its stunning seasonal scenery and lucky Daruma dolls, it's known as the “Victory Temple” where visitors come to pray for success. The serene grounds, especially vibrant in autumn, offer a calming spiritual escape with scenic views and tranquil gardens.
Minoh Falls
  • 2h
Escape the hustle of Osaka and step into the serene beauty of Minoo Falls, often called Osaka’s most scenic forest trail. This 33-meter-high waterfall flows gracefully through lush nature that transforms with the seasons—cherry blossoms in spring, vibrant greens in summer, fiery maples in autumn, and snowy scenes in winter. It’s one of Japan’s top 10 searched natural attractions. The gentle trail is perfect for all ages, and you might even spot wild monkeys along the way. Ideal for families and photographers, it’s a hidden gem that brings the magic of a national park right into Osaka.
Arashiyama Bamboo Forest
  • 2h
Arashiyama Bamboo Grove in Kyoto is a magical forest path lined with towering bamboo stalks that sway gently in the breeze. Walking through this serene and iconic spot feels like stepping into another world. It's a must-visit for its peaceful beauty, especially in the early morning when it's quiet and the light filters softly through the bamboo.
Todai-ji Temple
  • 3h
Don’t miss Tōdaiji Temple when visiting Nara! With over 1,000 years of history and recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it's the world’s largest wooden temple and home to the Great Buddha. Located within Nara Deer Park, the path to the temple is lined with friendly sika deer, considered sacred messengers. You can enjoy feeding them with special deer crackers sold nearby—or bring your own. Legend says the deity of Kasuga Taisha Shrine arrived riding a deer, adding to the area's spiritual charm.
