Osaka & Hiroshima Alone: A Solo Travel Guide for Women 50 and Over

Osaka and Hiroshima, counter by counter.

Sit facing the fryer at a kushikatsu bar, eat okonomiyaki at the griddle counter, and cross to Miyajima from Hiroshima, riding in cars reserved for women at rush hour.

Eat alone: takoyaki in Dotonbori, Kuromon Ichiba Market, Hiroshima oysters.

See: Osaka Castle, Shinsekai, the Peace Memorial Park and Nara.

Feel safe: cars reserved for women and a calm word on Dotonbori promoters.

Day plans, hotels by budget and honest safety notes. EPUB ebook.
