Route :
Kansai International Airport,KIX 關西機場--> Namba 南波 --> Shinsaibashi 心齋橋--> Check-in at Hana Hostel --> Shinsaibashi 心齋橋 --> Dotonbori 道頓堀
We chose Nankai Railway from KIX to Namba. It is about 47 minutes by the train. Choose the train with destination board display 空港急行, Airport Express Namba.
We bought the ticket with fares from KIX to Namba and one stop of subway to Shinsaibashi, it is 980 Yen. You can also buy the ticket for KIX to Namba only at the price of 890 Yen. However, if you are staying outside Namba, I suggest you to buy the ticket of 980 Yen for a trip to Namba and one way of subway. If you buy separately, one way of subway is 230 Yen and one way to Namba from KIX is 890 Yen which will cost you at 1120 Yen.
Note : If you are staying places other than Namba and require a ride of Subway
1. Buy directly from Nankai counter at the airport (Including one way from Nankai to Namba and one way of subway) : 980 Yen ---->> WIN
2. Buy separately one from Nankai Counter and one from subway station : 890 Yen + 230 Yen = 1120Yen
3. One way from KIX to Namba by Nankai : 890 Yen
From Namba, we headed over to Shinsaibashi through Midosuji Line,M from Namba, M19 to Shinsaibashi Station, M19. It is about 5 min.
After dropping baggage in hotel Hana Osaka, we head over for a famous takoyaki shop (甲賀流 （こうがりゅう／kougaryu It actually right in the American village.
We head over to Shinsaibashi and Namba Takashimaya Malls for dinner.
There the big entrance of Shinsaibashi-Muji. It is actually a shopping street with lot of stores like uniqlo, zara , H&M,food, and cosmetic's store.

Shinsaibashi-muji
Along the street, this was the first street we stopped and spent. As the picture depicted, it is a shop call Pet paradise,so it's definitely a shopping place for pets. Mainly the products are for doggie. Frankly, Japan has a really good quality and design of pet's clothes.
Teng,Teng, Teng, Teng, souvenir for our daughter, Orange aka niu niu 妞妞 and also Tuffy.
They were all from Pet Paradise.
P.S : Niu Niu, She loves the snack so............much!!!!
If you continue walking from Shinsaibashi, u will reach a bridge. This is the place call Dontonbori.
Dontonbori has lot of food to try out.
Continue walking from Dontobori, we reach Namba station. Next to it, it is a mall called Takashimaya. 高島屋。 The receptionist from our hostel recommend us to try out the famous 福太郎 Okinomiyaki from Town. It's inside the Takashimaya.
We have no ideas how to read Japanese. Body language do the best work. We shows a thumb up sign to the chef. and he then serves us the dishes.
We are guessing the left one is seafood and the right one is beef. Both are super delicious!!!
It's really full after finishing both of these.It's worth walking from Shinsaibashi to here for this dinner.
Pic of the day!
After a long day travelling, we decided to head back for a rest. On the way back, we noticed this adorable Rilakkuma.
There goes the Day 1.
