Church of the Light in Ibaraki, Osaka, Japan.

This is a church built by famous Japanese architect Tadao Ando. He is the same architect who built the Tokyo Sky Tree. This is a beautiful modern church that uses concrete, light, and simplicity in the best way. accessible by bus only. Take the bus from Osaka station. and the church is a short walk from the bus stop. If you go on a saturday there will be other architecture enthusiasts going to visit the church. Follow them. If you are alone make sure you have a map before you leave because it is outside the city center and people around the area wont speak much English.

Top Ibaraki Hotel Reviews

Centara Grand Hotel Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"The room was great. Clean and with wonderful views. The staff that checked us in made us wait more than 30 minutes because supposedly they did not have the room we had requested (corner room). I kept asking if everything was ok because they were speaking Japanese and finally he told me. Then he just said sorry we don’t have your room. And that was it. He didn’t offer an upgrade or any vouchers or anything. Just, sorry we don’t have your room. Then he said if it was ok if we stayed in a ‘family’ room. I didn’t know what he meant but in the end, when we went to the room, it was still really clean and nice."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"Located only a couple of blocks from the main train station, this hotel was a great pick. Incredibly clean as you must take your shoes off at the entrance and roll your luggage through water before entering the lobby, and your room. The variety of hot springs baths you can choose from and the extras, such as evening noodles, ice creams and massage chairs make this a great place for families to stay. There are a number of reasonably priced restaurants nearby along with a token Don Quijote just down the street. Also on the same road as public buses 205 and 206 which take you to the tourist attractions such as the golden Pavillon. "
