Day 2 TOKYO – OSAKA
Upon our arrival in Tokyo, we transfer for a domestic flight to Osaka, one of the cultural hearts of Japan. After arriving, we commence our panoramic city tour of Osaka. On our tour, we will see Osaka Castle, built in the 16th century, which played an important role in the unification of the Japanese nation, and the Umeda Sky Building, consisting of two structures 173 meters long. The Umeda Sky Building is a magnificent skyscraper located near Osaka and Umeda stations. The 173-meter high building consists of two towers connected by the "Floating Garden Observatory" on the 39th floor. The observatory offers stunning views of the city from its windows and open-air terrace. Then we will have free time in the city center until the time announced by our guide.

After breakfast at the hotel, we depart for our Nara tour. We start our tour with Todaiji Temple, built in 752 AD to be the head of all Buddhist temples. Over time, the temple's influence grew and it began to affect politics in the 8th century. The main hall of Todaiji is known for being the largest wooden structure in the world. This immense building houses one of Japan's largest bronze Buddha statues (Daibutsu). Afterward, we visit Nara Deer Park, a large park in the center of Nara, established in 1880, which includes most of Nara's main attractions such as Todaiji, Kasuga Taisha, Kofukuji, and the Nara National Museum. It is also home to hundreds of freely roaming deer. The fact that deer are considered messengers of the gods in Japanese mythology makes this area special both visually and culturally. While walking in the park, you will have the chance to create unforgettable memories and take photos with curious deer approaching you. Then we will visit Dotonbori & Shinsaibashi, a popular nightlife, shopping, and entertainment district characterized by its eccentric atmosphere and large illuminated signs, despite once being a theater district.

The city is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We start our city tour with the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. Visitors to the bamboo forest are greeted by a 500-meter walking trail. During this walk on the trail, you will enjoy pleasant moments with the sound of the wind passing through the bamboos and have the opportunity to take pictures of the forest.

Originally a villa of an aristocrat during the Heian Period, the site was converted into a Zen temple in 1450. An interesting feature of the garden design is that at least one of the rocks is always hidden from the viewer from any point. Next, we will visit Kiyomizudera (Pure Water) Temple, established on the site of the Otowa Falls in the forested hills east of Kyoto in 780. Finally, we transfer to Gion, Kyoto's most famous geisha district, located between Yasaka Shrine to the east and the Kamo River to the west, along Shijo Boulevard.

Upon our arrival, we proceed to Ginza, the most famous luxury shopping, dining, and entertainment district in Tokyo, which hosts a multitude of stores, boutiques, art galleries, restaurants, nightclubs, and cafes. The name "Ginza," meaning “silver mint” in Japanese, originates from the fact that from 1612 to 1800, the area was home to a silver coin mint. We continue the tour with a break for lunch. Afterward, we visit the Shibuya Pedestrian Crossing, one of the busiest pedestrian crossings in Tokyo, located in one of the city's most crowded areas, which is known for its bustling business and shopping centers.
