I plan to go to japan on Dec,25 until 2nd week of Jan 2020. I plan that Osaka will be my main stay. I wanna ask you for my trip as follow : - Where is the place that has beautiful nature and not far from Osaka? - Has a little town with historical atmosphere and not far from Osaka? - Where is the charming place to stay overnight with onsen?
Thank you very much.

Honestly, Osaka is not an attractive city for tourism, though I am a former Osakan. It is a big city and with Kobe, Kyoto etc., it make a metropolitan area. But of course there are some places for the nature though they are not the best places in Japan. - Where is the place that has beautiful nature and not far from Osaka?One place that comes to my mind is Kongo-san mountain. In winter you can see trees covered with hoarfrost. https://travel.gaijinpot.com/mount-kongo/- Has a little town with historical atmosphere and not far from Osaka?Igaueno and Izushi are called "little Kyoro". Oumi-Hachiman, Hikone, and Himeji are also nice. - Where is the charming place to stay overnight with onsen?Kinosaki. Izushi is rather close to Kinosaki. In Osaka you may want to visit: Uemachi-Daichi including Shitennouji. Tenjinhashisuji is the longest shopping street in Japan. Nakanoshima is the center of Osaka and has some historical buildings.

Just to add to the PPs:
- Where is the place that has beautiful nature and not far from Osaka?
- Minoh Park - Wakayama Prefecture - Biwa Lake - Naoshima
- Has a little town with historical atmosphere and not far from Osaka?
- Imaicho - Kurashiki - Nara
- Where is the charming place to stay overnight with onsen?
- Dorogawa onsen
As the PPs said Osaka itself isnft such a nice place. Itfs okay. And it is good as a central transport hub for the Kansai region.
Be aware that some things (museums, restaurants etc) May be closed between about 28/Dec to 4/Jan. So if you plan something specific during that time, check first if itfs open.
Enjoy your trip to Kansai!
