Must see in Osaka! Expo City, Pokemon Center and Nifrel

Hi Everyone,

This is my first time going to Osaka so of course, I have to visit the EXPOCITY! The largest complex in Japan has just opened recently in Osaka. I decided to visit the Pokemon Gym, Nifrel and the Gundam cafe! If you don’t know, I LOVE Pokemon so this was high up on my to-do list for this trip! If you’ve never played Pokemon then I encourage all of you to go to a site like Gamulator and download one of the Pokemon games on there. I spent so long when I was growing up collecting Pokemon, fighting at gyms, taking on leaders and I wouldn’t have it any other way! My favorite has always been Snorlax and he’ll be making an appearance later on in this article 😉 I spent a lot more money at the Pokemon shop than I was expecting but don’t regret it – it’s one thing buying merch like cards online at places like Pokeflip, but to be able to go into a store dedicated to one of your passions and see physical products is just the best. Oh and don’t forget to visit the ALL YOU CAN EAT KFC. I missed it 🙁 Since we ate at the Gundam cafe, but if you ever visit – make sure you eat at the all you can eat!! Visit the full map here.

Nifrel

It’s such a neat little aquarium, everything is 3D!!! Although everything in there was giving me major headache since everything is 3D. They have pretty neat things in here.

Pokemon Gym

I didn’t actually pay to go inside…. I’ve read some of the reviews and many said it’s only good if you have children with you. Since I don’t….. we decided to skip it, but I did picked up some really neat souvenirs! The amount of pokemon merch was amazing, although a friend showed me some even crazier products online like this bong pokemon which I found hilarious!

Gundam Cafe

Who else wanted to come here. Of course my husband!!!

Apparently, we sat at the “char” table. *rolls eyes*

Make sure you get the Cherry Blossom Frapp!!!! I also picked up an unlimited edition of their Osaka tumbler! There’s always shopping in Japan! Make sure you head to LaLaport mall!

If you are a fan of Kapibara character, why not check out the BC Bakery. This bakery makes some awesome character buns. I found this cute bakery by chance, as it is not well advertised!

Thanks so much for reading!

        Not anytime soon unfortunately, we prefer to wait the little one to be much older so he could enjoy the experience too. 🙂
