About Osaka-shi

You know, when you try to think of what a huge city is, with many people, cars, skyscrapers, activity... well, that's exactly how Osaka could be defined. It is the epitome of the vibrant agglomeration, being one of the global economy's leading cities with the headquarters of world-renowned Japanese companies. It is a perfect place to taste the (expensive though) delicious Kobe beef.
