Weird/uncommon/taboo things to do in Osaka 2013/1/11 14:21
Hi all, although I am born in Kyoto, I grew up in Australia, and have experienced everything Japan as to offer from karaoke, Onsen, sightseeing, shopping, sumo watching etc.

What I am after is the side of Japan you don't get to see as a traveller.

Does anybody know any uncommon/weird/taboo things to do in Osaka. I have figure no one exactly talks about it, but for a country who is famous for exactly that weird and wonderful, i will appreciate any suggestions. It could very well be something as simple as having a homestay (which I have already done ) or vising red light districts... etc. etc

Cheers,

You could try running naked through the city.
It is quite weird/uncommon/taboo. ;)

Also it might get you a free excursion and field trip to local police station, where you can study how the Japanese justice system works.

Don't ever say that Udon noodle soup or Okonomiyaki taste better in Tokyo. People in Osaka will be disgusted by you then…:)
