Osaka

Osaka is the largest city in the Kansai region of Japan that also includes Kyoto and Nara. It is perhaps the only city in Japan that can compete with Tokyo in terms of its contribution to modern Japanese culture. Osaka is famous for its delicious and affordable food, its buzzing atmosphere and its friendly people. Osaka people also have their own dialect, Osaka-ben, which they are not afraid to use. Osaka is also the center of two types of traditional Japanese entertainment, rakugo and manzai. In addition, many of Japan's most popular comedians on TV hail from Osaka.
