New this week
Day Trips reached Minoh Park, a waterfall hike close enough for a half-day out. Districts added Kyobashi and Tenma, a genuinely local izakaya district around Osaka Tenmangu Shrine. Plan picked up a season-by-season packing guide. Food added a vegetarian and vegan guide — useful given how much of the city's cooking runs on fish-based dashi stock. Culture added a guide to shotengai, the covered shopping arcades, centred on Tenjinbashisuji — said to be the longest in Japan.
Going back to improve older pages
As the site grows, some of the earliest pages were written before later, more specific guides existed to link to. This week we went back through a handful of them — the Shinsekai & Tennoji district page, the festivals guide, the best-time-to-visit guide — and added links to newer pages that are now more relevant than what was available when they were first written. We'll keep doing occasional passes like this alongside new pages, rather than only ever adding new content and never revisiting old.
