You are most welcome!😃🙏 Half day is enough if you decide to take a bus to Minoh Falls, instead of walking, from Katsuoji temple or vice-versa. If you wish to walk from the temple to Minoh Falls, it will take you at least 50 mins but it's totally worth it in my opinion especially during autumn and winter.
@@cloverwawa Yes...there's a station called Mino-o or minoh station. It's approximately 30-40 mins walk from Minoh Falls. A long the way you can stop by at a Buddhist Temple, Ryuan-Ji. Enjoy your trip!🥰
Such a beautiful video! I’m inspired to follow your itinerary, just want to ask if the trail from Katsuoji Temple to Minoh Falls and from Minoh Falls to the bus station to Osaka Castle is safe? I’ll be travelling alone so it’s one of my concerns. Thank youuu!!
@@elfcheska20 Thank you so much for the great comments🙏🏻😃❤️! it’s perfectly safe and I enjoyed walking to Minoh Falls immensely👍🏻 I encouraged everyone to give it a try 😄
Hi Nicholas, is this all done in one day? I am planning to go Katsuoji Temple as well because I felt like this is worth visiting.. I’ve been to Osaka Castle park, this time round I am bringing a friend of mine that never been to the castle. So I’m thinking of fitting both this temple and castle together in a day is it doable? Will it be very rushy? And from SenriChuo, the 29 bus station is at which area ya?
Hello rachel! Yes it's all doable in a day for sure, i.e katsuoji and osaka castle. You will have plenty of time for sure. The location of the bus stop is right underneath Senri-Chuo Station..so if u walk out of the station u will be able to find it. I hope this GPS coordinate greatly helps: 34.80939009499953, 135.49502999998876 You will get a clearer pic of where the station is from this visual: www.google.com/maps/@34.8093935,135.4947296,3a,75y,71.78h,108.11t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sejXNhkFQ94QLaKbi9eVcZQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205409&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MDkyNS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D
@@enda19 Hello Enda19🙂 Not confusing at all. There are signages at the bus station which you can refer to. Just remember to hop onto the right bus (Bus 29) at Platform 4..and alight at Katsuoji bus stop. From my understanding, you can use Icoca, Suica and even Pasmo smart cards in buses and trains in Osaka👍 Hope that helps.
hello nicholas. I want to ask how, long does it take from downtown of osaka to katsuoji temple with the route you took? i want to go there but im also planning to go to kyoto on the same day. thank you!😁
Hey Albert! Approx. 25-30mins if i could remember vaguely. Katsuoji is one of the most beautiful temples in Kansai region in my opinion. If you are adventurous enough, talk a relaxing walk to Minoh Falls😃
Can you walk on car pathway? I am planning to descend from Katsuoji temple to Minoh Falls. The shuttle bus service is not available in autumn and on weekdays.
Hello! Thank you for leaving a comment😃 Head over to Senri-chuo train station…the bus station is below an overheard bridge🙂 it’s outside the train station fyi. Enjoy your trip! Katsuoji temple is 🥰 beautiful.
Hey there! 🙂 Just use Icoca or Pasmo card or any ID card. We didn't purchase any ticket. Offhand i cannot remember how much it was. But it's worth the trip to Katsuoji Temple and take a walk to Minoh Falls. You will love it!😍
Thank you for sharing. How many hrs you spent at Katsuogi temple + Minoh Falls? Need full day or half day trip is good enough?
You are most welcome!😃🙏
