1 Japan's Osaka Travels _prep review back to the top

PConline traveled for many years and Xiaobian was not talented. This time he was still unable to step out of Asia, but he was finally able to send everyone a travel note from a developed country. This official business is not a sightseeing experience. Fortunately, we will also visit Sharp Kameyama's LCD panel production line, the 100-year Sharp City Museum, and the Japanese refrigerator production line, which I believe will also make you satisfied.

Even if I'm on a business trip, Xiao Bian will still have time to go around and try to pat around. So we've got some information about Osaka. Let's first look at what's fun.

Prep

Osaka is a city located in Osaka Prefecture near the southwestern part of Honshu Island in Japan. It is the second largest city in Japan, is the seat of the government office of Osaka Prefecture, and is one of the designated cities for the government. With an area of ​​223 square kilometers and a total population of approximately 2.67 million, Osaka is the third most populous city in Japan after Tokyo and Yokohama. Osaka's economy is second to Tokyo and ranks second in Japan.

About the name and historical lineage

“Osaka” is often called “Otsuka” in ancient times, and the word “Otsuka” first appeared in the Muromachi era. In 1496, it was documented that VIII Lotus of Hongan Temple had been built in the “Daiyu Village in Dongcheng-gun, Seokju-gun”. The temple was first shown in the literature for the word "big brother". However, in the Edo period, the name "Osaka" was not uncommon. After the Meiji era, "Osaka" was used mostly. Since the Nara era, Osaka has become a trading port because of its location on the sea. At that time, the Japanese government also built Namba Palace in Osaka, which was once the capital of Japan.


Osaka Castle Castle Tower

In the Azuchi-Momoyama era, Toyotomi Hideyoshi built Osaka Castle and used Osaka as the dominant city for the Toyotomi regime. In the Edo period, Osaka, Kyoto, and Edo were known as the "Santo," which was Japan's most economically active commercial city at the time and was hailed as "the kitchen in the world."

About the economy

In the early days of the Meiji era, the new government set up a mint and an Osaka artillery factory in Osaka, turning Osaka's commercial city from the Edo era into an industrial city. The Hanshin Industrial Zone where Osaka was located before the war was once Japan's largest industrial zone. In 1882, Shizawa-Ryoichi and other industrialists founded Osaka Textiles Co., Ltd. in Osaka, and the textile industry developed rapidly. Osaka became a pillar industry in Osaka from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. Osaka also enjoyed the reputation of "Manchester in the East." After the war, due to Tokyo's intensive concentration of progress, although Osaka was distanced by Tokyo in terms of population and economic development, it is still the largest city and economic center in Western Japan.

One of the characteristics of Osaka's industry today is that there are more SMEs. Osaka City has more than 14,000 manufacturing facilities, second only to Tokyo in Japan. As for the industrial geography of Osaka, the heavy chemical industry and the iron and steel industry that require more land are mainly distributed along the coast of Osaka Bay, while the factories of other industries such as machinery are widely distributed throughout the city.

After the 1970s, the industrial development of Osaka was severely affected by the legislation that led to the construction of large-scale heavy chemical plants in coastal areas. In response to this, Osaka City has actively attracted technology manufacturers to set up factories along the Osaka Bay, and along with the development of the service industry, the industrial structure along the Osaka Bay has changed. The large-scale industrial companies headquartered in Osaka now include Sharp, the organizer of the event, and Roton Pharmaceuticals and Daikin Industries.

About culture

In addition to economy, Osaka is also known for its unique culture. Today's Osaka and Tokyo are the most representative metropolises in Japan, and they are also known as international cities in the world. In 2014, according to the global city rankings of US consulting company AT Kearney, Osaka City is the world's 55th largest global city.

Osaka is known as the “kitchen of the world,” so although we may not have much time to visit various places in the area, we believe that we will be able to enjoy the most authentic Japanese cuisine.

In Japan, there are proverbs that "the people of Kyoto are bankrupt and the people of Osaka go bankrupt for food." This shows that Osaka people are persistent about food. The rich ingredients make Osaka one of the most developed cities in Japan in terms of food culture. There are many Japanese cuisines. For example, sushi is all from Osaka.


Takoyaki

One of the characteristics of Osaka's food culture is that the taste is lighter, and the use of lighter soy sauce and Japanese style soup is more common. Osaka City has many high-quality kiosks and also has snacks such as takoyaki and okonomiyaki that spread to all walks of life (hopefully you can take a walk and try it out). Below we enter the text of the travel.

Departure

From Shanghai to Osaka, the distance is approximately 1360km and the flight time is approximately one and a half hours.

The entry process does not allow for photographing, but the author found that there is a prohibition sign, so the previous shot was deleted, so there is no map during the clearance process. However, the entire clearance process was very smooth and there was no need to pay for the US knife when going to Indonesia.

About Kansai Airport

Kansai International Airport is built on the sea and is Japan's first international airport operating 24 hours a day. There are many routes at the airport to various cities and attractions in Japan. There are also many tourists coming from other countries. The ticket prices to Osaka are generally stable. If you want to go to other cities, you have to choose a good transfer time. Some software such as Ctrip and Micro Donkey to splice flight lines to minimize consumption. It takes 1 hour and 15 minutes from Osaka Kansai International Airport to Tokyo Haneda Airport and 29 minutes from Kansai International Airport to Tennoji Osaka.

At the airport, what was surprising was that the head of Sharp's headquarters in Japan (the Chinese characters in Japanese are written like this) Ms. Yifu Lizi and Mr. Dahe Youtai, actually had to meet at the airport to greet him, and we also met with us. Ms. Weaver guided the meeting. Under her guidance, we did not choose to take the bus directly to Namba. Instead, we took a bus to Izumisano and boarded the Nankai line tram (similar to the domestic light rail car). It is estimated that the time taken by the tram is approximately Half an hour.

3 Osaka Travel Notes _ Departures From Namba To The Top

Finally set foot on the land of Osaka, let us see the real Osaka below.

Why Osaka used to be called Naniwa

According to historical records in Japan, the emperor took a voyage from Kyushu to the east by boat, and near Osaka, the water was turbulent and the waves tumbling. This place was called “wave speed,” and Langhua or Namba had similar meaning to the speed of waves. From the 19th century onwards, it was renamed Osaka. The reason was that the area was hilly. The slope area on the Shoindai area was wide and the slope was gentle. It was known as Osaka in the Japanese language and later evolved into Osaka.
