Daily Life In Osaka
OSAKA, JAPAN - MARCH 30: Crowds of visitors, many wearing protective face masks, stroll beneath a dense canopy of blooming Somei-Yoshino cherry trees along a pedestrian walkway in Osaka, Japan, on March 30, 2026. The 2026 sakura season has generated an estimated $9.4 billion in tourism revenue, driven by a record surge in international arrivals and a weak yen, even as significant declines in travelers from mainland China prompted more competitive pricing for hospitality and retail sectors across the Kansai region.
