Experience of the stay
I stayed thinking that I could go directly from Honmachi Station to the Expo site on Yumeshima! It’s about a 15-minute walk from Honmachi Station. The room was a simple twin room. There was a free drink at the lobby lounge, and even mini cup noodles, which were great for when I got a little hungry! I went to drop off my suitcase in the morning, and I appreciated that it was already taken to my room during check-in.
Experiences during the trip
On the first day of the Expo, I booked a hotel conveniently located one train ride away from the East Gate, but instead reserved a shuttle bus to the West Gate. I thought it would have been better to stay near Osaka Station as I entered the Expo. I managed to get in about 15 minutes after the opening, but without much planning. I booked Nomono Kuni on the day through a reservation terminal and went straight to Azerbaijan, which I noticed first. There was no one there💦 I didn’t really understand the route and exited in just five minutes. After that, I walked to the German Pavilion, which was informative. I also saw the Kansai Pavilion, Indonesia, India, the Philippines, and Nomono Kuni. What I was looking forward to at the Expo was the food from various countries. I tried Malaysian Roti Canai, Indian Chicken Biryani, and German Currywurst, and everything I ate was curry-flavored 🤣 I played until night, then took the train back to my hotel. The walk back for 15 minutes after being exhausted was tough💦
