Osaka the place people calls freedom 🇯🇵

in #teammalaysia6 years ago

Given that this is Japan, where that could mean anything from loosening your tie to a full-scale Bacchanalian orgy, I wasn't quite sure what to expect.
What I found, however, was an astonishing, vibrant, exciting city and the very warmest of welcomes.
While the Japanese are never less than polite and helpful, Osaka folks are genuinely open, friendly and so much as they are able chatty.

Like the capital, Osaka is a huge place; the second-largest city in the country, in fact, with around nine million people in the entire prefecture.

It's divided, broadly speaking, into downtown and uptown such as Minami. The former is Osaka's central commercial and business area but Minami strictly speaking, the South is where you want to be.Here you'll find Namba, Shinsaibashi and Dotonbori and describing them as the city's premier shopping and entertainment centres doesn't even remotely begin to do them justice. For city block after city block, every main road, every side street, every alleyway is packed with bars, restaurants and nightclubs. Squeezed among them you'll find fast-food stalls, pachinko parlours, games arcades and coffee shops.You could eat out twice a day for a year and never come close to repeating yourself within a 10-minute radius of Namba Station alone.

And now, one day trip to Kyoto. And where I wore my Kimono and walk around and look like a Japanesse.
Before the story starts, let me explained about the world, the kimono is recognized as the national dress of Japan. Made from a single, long fourteen-inch-wide bolt of silk, the kimono has an over-all T-shape, with its component parts joined mostly in straight, vertical seams. In contrast to typical Western garb, the kimono is flat rather than three-dimensional, and angular, not form-fitting. It is more an expression of surface design by means of dyed or embroidered patterns than a product of tailoring and weave.

I had enjoyed my one day trip wearing kimono and enjoyed wondering around and having some great food. Whoever travel to Japan, I tell you it’s a must to visit this few places. This is what I called freedom.

You seem to have a hobby to travel and stop at various places to eat. If you have your own review of restaurants, I advise you to write a restaurant review through Tasteem.io

#how-about-tasteem
I think we better let you know, what we would love to see at your review.

  1. We would like to see something real, you and your experience at the restaurant. Not from the facebook, instagram, pinterest, tripadvisor, local guides etc. We didn’t expect professional reviews from you but we expect to see a good review from you own experience, your original content, not a copy of someone else or plagiarism
  2. Follow @tasteem and please read the contest rules. Many of you only add pictures of the food but not from the restaurant(especially from the front and the interior) remember, you have to write a review from the restaurant, not just food review.
  3. The restaurant doesn’t have to be always big or beautiful. You can also write a review from a (small) local restaurant. If the restaurant is too small and has no official address on google maps, you can use the nearest location and explain about this issue at your post. For example: The restaurant is at front or beside a hospital. You can add the location of the hospital and describe this on your post.
  4. Re-post old Tasteem review is not allowed. If you use some old informations or pictures of your own from Steemit or from another platform, you must cite the reference to your former content.
  5. If you buy some food from somewhere to eat at home, this is not considered as a restaurant review.
  6. We understand that sometimes you are not allowed to take a picture from another customers inside the restaurant or sometimes you forget to take a picture from the restaurant(at front) in this case, you are allowed to use pictures from source but you must cite the reference to the source. Please remember, your review must contain more of your original pictures than from the source. You can’t create your post/review only from the source pictures.
  7. Do not create fake reviews because we could ban you from Tasteem.
