Tokyo Vs Osaka when coming Skiing in Nozawa
Most people coming up to Nozawa to ski fly into Tokyo Airports of Narita or Haneda as it is a bit closer and can take a direct Shuttle from the Airport to Nozawa or the Shinkansen so is definitely easier but don’t under estimate the lure of Osaka and its neighbours Kyoto, Nara and Kobe.

A few cool things to do in Osaka – Qantas Sale Osaka Japan
- Visit the famous Osaka Castle which was originally built in 1583 and is one of the biggest in Japan surrounded by beautiful parks and other smaller temples
- Universal Studios treat the kids to this Movie themed park with all the rides and shows to keep you well entertained for a day or two
- Shopping and Eating. It is well known amongst Japanese people that Osaka is more lively or “Genki” than its big brother Tokyo. This is reflected in the shops and restaurants with interesting delights and more interesting even comical staff and locals. The Dotonburi District is particularly interesting
- Day trip or a few days in Kyoto or Nara. Kyoto is the old capital of Japan and is flowing with historical temples, castles and shrines to visit. You could stay here for quite a few days and really explore this amazing city on a bike, foot or tour. You may even prefer Nara that is a bit of a smaller version of Kyoto and not as busy.
Anyway it is an exciting announcement and a great deal. So give Osaka as a port of entry into Japan a good thought as it is a great way to see more of Japan either before or after your ski trip to Nozawa.
