Travel tips
If you want to avoid stairs, use the elevators inside each building from the north ticket gate to reach street level. On days when you carry a lot of luggage, coin lockers are an option. Looking at the official station map before you leave, to see where the ticket gates and elevators are, will help you avoid getting lost. Trains are the main way to get around the city, so it goes more smoothly if you have an IC card (a rechargeable transit card) ready for each person.
Best season
Osaka has many indoor attractions, so it can be enjoyed all year round. Spring and fall have mild weather and are also good for outdoor sightseeing. Summer is hot and humid, so mixing in indoor attractions makes it more comfortable, and in winter an itinerary centered on indoor spots works well.
