Nov. 27, '09 - Autumn has finally reached its peak and the colours of the season have become more intense in Kyoto and neighboring cities. Only two days left to enjoy scenic Kyoto and Osaka, and definitely wouldn't want to miss Universal Studios Japan in Osaka. Though the latter is a bit far from being a faithful reproduction of the original Hollywood theme park (Backlot Tour is missing), future expansion to fill up the gap is clearly on its way plus some unique ride and attractions you won't see in those of Hollywood or Orlando more than make up for it. Worth the trip. Highly recommended!
