In this episode, I take you on a raw, unfiltered journey through the bustling streets of Osaka and the quiet corners of Kyoto. Two cities pulsing with culture, flavor, and surprises. We're not just here to eat and admire temples. We’re here for JDM watches, vintage gems, and secondhand finds you won’t see anywhere else.
But be warned, this is not your typical Osaka or Kyoto travel guide. This is about the hunt. The thrill of finding that one vintage JDM piece buried in a pawnshop, or lost among shelves in a BookOff Super Bazaar that smells like old plastic and quiet desperation. Sometimes, it includes the conversations you have without speaking. Just nods, gestures, and a shared respect between you and a Japanese shopkeeper who knows exactly what you’re looking for.
Osaka hits you in the face the second you arrive. Namba’s alive and twitching with color, food stalls coughing up steam, Don Quijote’s flashing madness burning your ears with the don don donki music. But beneath the noise are gems that even I myself is not expecting at all.
And then there’s Kyoto. Everyone talks about the temples, the geisha district, the bamboo groves. But I was here for something else and my intention is precise like a second hand in your watch. A city that wears time like a well-worn kimono. Under the tourist gloss are secondhand stores where I will be pushing my luck and see where it will go. Watches that have outlived trends, tasted decades, and now sits quietly waiting for someone who gets it. But do not be fooled because it is not always sunshine and rainbows here. Sometimes we hit, sometimes we miss.
If you're looking for the best places to buy watches in Osaka or Kyoto, if you’re into secondhand shopping in Japan, if you just want to feel like you’re wandering the backstreets with a pocketful of yen and no particular plan, then you are about to consume the correct content. And yeah, I’ll show you how to get to these places too. Train by train. Stop by stop. No nonsense.
I'll be honest with you, I might not help you completely as a tourist guide for your Kansai trip. But I will show you the other side of Osaka and Kyoto. The side that doesn’t care if you’re a tourist or a collector. It’s just waiting for you to show up and pay attention.
What to expect at Osaka World Expo 2025 Japan and this episode might help you smoothen things before you arrive. First things first, this event is being held once in every five years and for 2025, I got lucky that my Osaka trip is within the event period which is April 13, 2025 to October 13, 2025. Just in case you will miss it, the next World Expo will happen at Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
I got really excited on this once after seeing the Philippine Pavilion which exceeded my expectation. I'm not downplaying my beloved country but I did not expect that it can pull off something like that. Not to mention, the people inside the pavilion from other countries are genuinely enjoying inside. Watch the entire episode to see why.
Unfortunately for me, I was not able to visit popular pavilions like USA, Gundam Future Pavilion and others because they require a reservation or just because of a long line. But that did not hinder us in enjoying this event. Countries like Portugal, UAE, Oman, Belgium does not require any and other pavilions too!
Portugal Pavilion in Osaka World Expo 2025 is an eye opener for us and I do recommend checking it out. It is not the best but it will provide a good lesson!
This episode What to expect at Osaka World Expo 2025 Japan is just a glimpse of this massive event and I feel like it requires 2 to 3 days just to see everything. Hopefully you can dedicate a bit of your time in watching the entire episode of our first ever World Expo in Osaka, Japan this 2025.
