Happy New Year🎍☀️ I am glad that you had a good time in Japan. Japan celebrated the New Year with a major earthquake on 1 January. I hope that 2024 will be a good year for everyone. www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/
Your content is very helpful, thank you so much. Actually I have plan to go to Osaka by 20-21 Aug 23. In a short period of time I really wanted to know Osaka as much as possible (not design yet that I'll go there to explore Osaka by myself and my colleagues or make it with some help from the local guide) Anyway, it would be very nice if you can help us for being our tour guide in Osaka By the way, I'm from Thailand 😊🙏
Hi! Yes. It is near the exit of Osaka Metro Namba Station. You can find the shops in some places in Osaka. See the link below for details. www.rikuro.co.jp/en/
Hi mr shiba shiba. Good video. I'll travel from kyoto to namba next month. Can i use icoca from shin osaka to namba station ? Or must we buy ticket from machine like how you did? When I arrive shin okasa by shinkansen from kyoto. It is also the same arrival platform like your video? My apologies this is my first time travel at japan with my 2 young kids . I kind of nervous also 😅 Thanks a lot in advance 🙏
Hi! Thank you for the comment. You can use ICOCA to take the Osaka Metro Midosuji Line, so you don't have to purchase a ticket. When arriving from Kyoto Station to Shin-Osaka Station, it is not always on the same platform. However, after you take the escalator down from the platform, you will be at the same place near the CENTRAL GATE in the video from any platform. Anyway, proceed towards the CENTRAL GATE. If you have any other questions, do feel free to comment again.😊
Hello, thank you for your very helpful video. I just have a question, when buying the ticket, your pressed "280". Is this the ticket specific for Namba?
Hi! "280" (currently 290 yen due to a price increase) is the price for a ticket between Shin-osaka station and Namba station. Fares are dsiplayed above the ticket machines at every station. If you have any further questions, do feel free to comment again.😊
@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan thank you for the clarification. I was wondering if there is an option of choosing by the name of the place like “Namba”? In any case, this is very helpful and I hope there will be no price increase soon so we just look for the “290” price 🙏
Hello, こんにちは thank You so much for fantastic video. I have a question is it possible to take direct train/metro from Shin Osaka to Kintetsu-Nippombashi or Nippombashi station? さようなら :)
Hi! Unfortunately, there's no direct train between Shin-osaka and Nippombashi Stations, so from Shin-osaka Station take the Osaka Metro Midosuji Line to Namba Station and transfer there to the Osaka Metro Sennichimae Line. One stop further is Nippombashi Station. See the link below for details. maps.app.goo.gl/xCmXB4ACpE2LDsTn8 If you have any other questions, feel free to comment again.😊
Hi! We can use Kansai Thru Pass for Osaka Metro to travel between Shin-osaka Station to Namba Station. If you have any other questions, do feel free to comment again.😊
Hi Mr Shiba what If I picked other options instead of 280? Would I still be able to take the train to Namba? Or is it easier just to scan the icoca card ?

Hi Mr. Shiba, can I know if we can purchase ICOCA card when taking the train to Namba station from Shin-Osaka? Because I see when you buy the tickets, there isn't any option for purchasing ICOCA card 😅

@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan thank you Mr Shiba for the tips! I wanna know, is JR pass worth to buy if we are travelling Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto only? or better to buy individual JR passes from Shinigawa to Shin-Osaka and Shin- Osaka to Tokyo?
Hello! If you are travelling between Tokyo and Osaka and back, the JR Pass is good value for money. But if you are only travelling one way between Tokyo and Osaka, you don't need a JR Pass.
