osaka day 4

we finally went to a scenic place in osaka, that is Minoo Park. i totally never hear of minoo park before. is thanks to darling's colleague who strongly recommended us to go there, so off we went! 

we love walking in the bright sunshine plus cooling weather and enjoying the natural scenery. 

the end point of minoo park is the minoo waterfall. 

check out the rainbow! 

minoo waterfall is of course nothing compared to niagara falls but we are still very happy to see it and hear the sound of it. hahahaha. 

after that we went back to shinshaibashi again to do some shopping and... eating. 

there's 2 tako yaki shops side by side. if you dunno which one to choose, the rule of the thumb is go to the one with the longest queue! 

looks damn good isn't it? they taste damn good too! 9 balls for 500 yen! 

just next door is also the famous ichiran ramen! always long queue but when we finished our tako yaki, there was no queue at all! so we quickly went in and bought our ramen, we ordered one bowl to share. 

noodles were springy and broth was flavourful. awesome ramen! service was very good too! when the staff knew that we were sharing, they removed this partition in between us and ta da we can share the ramen very conveniently. i thought they will show us attitude face because we are sharing but they totally didnt. really love the high service standards of the japanese. 

we bought the pablo cheesecake again, but this time is a different flavour. didn't really like it. we love the previous one. 

our final destination of the day is osaka castle. we are not hardcore historians so we just take a photo with the castle and went back to our apartment. we need to pack our stuff as we will be leaving osaka the next day to go to nara. :)
