It is located in the central metropolis of the Kansai region and the largest of the Osaka-Kobe-Kyoto trio.Osaka is home to some of the most famous electronic companies. For tourists, it serves as a good base from which to explore Kyoto and Kobe.&nbsp;<h2>Gay Rights in Japan</h2>For information about gay rights in Japan, <a title="Essential Guide to Tokyo" href="https://www.travelgayasia.com/essential-guide-to-tokyo/">click here to go to the Tokyo City Guide</a> page.&nbsp;<h2>Gay Scene</h2>Much of the Osaka gay scene is centered in Doyama - a district in the Umeda area - close to the JR Osaka and Umeda Station. In fact, the Doyama area has now become a hub for the gay community in West Japan.Many restaurants, <a href="https://www.travelgayasia.com/osaka-gay-bars/">Gay Bars</a>, <a href="https://www.travelgayasia.com/osaka-gay-dance-clubs/">Gay Dance Clubs</a>, hotels and shops are concentrated in the area. It is one of the largest party towns in Japan and home to many to <a href="https://www.travelgayasia.com/osaka-gay-saunas/">Gay Saunas</a>, host bars, <a href="https://www.travelgayasia.com/osaka-gay-massage-spas/">Gay Massage Spas</a> and brothels.Karaoke is popular and gay monthly and pornographic magazines can be found and read at many establishments.Weekends are by far the most popular nights to hit the town, however, foreign visitors should not expect the sort of huge gay scene that you would perhaps expect to find in cities of a similar size in the West.<h5><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-67383" src="https://static.travelgay.com/media/68207/osaka-castle.jpg" alt="Osaka Castle Japan" width="100%" />Osaka Castle</h5>&nbsp;<h2>Getting to Osaka</h2>The main international gateway to Osaka is Kansai International Airport (KIX). The airport has two railway connections to the city: JR West's Kansai Airport Line and the private Nankai Electric Railway. Most domestic flights arrive at Osaka International Airport (ITM).By trainTokaido and Sanyo Shinkansen trains arrive at Shin-Osaka station, to the north of the city centre. From Shin-Osaka, you can connect to the city centre by using the Midosuji subway line, or connect to the local JR network for other destinations.By carIt is generally a bad idea to drive in Osaka. Signs are usually only in Japanese, and parking fees are expensive.By busThere are many day and overnight buses which run between Osaka and other locations throughout Japan. These can offer a cheaper alternative to the faster, but more expensive Shinkansen fares.&nbsp;<h2>Getting around Osaka</h2>By subwayOsaka's extensive subway network is the natural way to get around. The Midosuji Line is the main artery, linking up the train stations and shopping complexes of Shin-Osaka, Umeda, Shinsaibashi, Namba and Tennoji.By trainThe JR Osaka Loop Line runs in a loop around Osaka and stops in Umeda and Tennoji, and by Osaka Castle.&nbsp;<h2>Things to See &amp; Do</h2>Osaka Castle - large, famous castle that was originally built in the 1580's.Shitenno Temple - the oldest Buddhist temple in Japan and one of Osaka's most popular attractions.Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan - one of Japan’s best aquariums.Nanba Grand Kagetsu - large entertainment hall equipped with the latest theatrical innovations, featuring comedy and acrobatic performances.Minami (Nanba) - Southern downtown of Osaka.Dotonburi - heart of Osaka nightlife, filled with theatres, restaurants, cafés, bars and nightclubs.<h5><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-67378" src="https://static.travelgay.com/media/68208/dotonbori-canel-osaka.jpg" alt="dotonbori-canel-osaka" width="100%" />Dotonburi</h5>&nbsp;Umeda Sky Building - skyscraper with observation deck.Kita (Umeda) - Northern downtown of Osaka.Peace Osaka - museum about the horrors of World War II.Amerika-Mura (American Village) - small neighborhood of trendy shops and restaurants.National Bunraku Theater - venue for traditional Japanese puppet.&nbsp;<h2>Where to Stay in Osaka</h2>Osaka has a wide range of accommodations to suit most budgets. Since taxis in Japan are expensive and the metro is the best way to get around, it is advisable to stay close to the train or subway station.Our list of <a title="gay Osaka hotels" href="https://www.travelgayasia.com/gay-osaka-hotels/">recommended Hotels in Osaka</a> are centrally located and within easy access to the train stations, shops, restaurants and gay scene.&nbsp;<h2>When to Visit</h2>The best time to visit Osaka is during spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November). The Cherry Blossom Festival during spring and the autumn leaves during the autumn season are very popular and attract both local foreign visitors.&nbsp;<h2>Visa</h2>If you are a citizen of one of the over 50 countries with which Japan has a “general visa exemption arrangement”, you need only a valid passport to enter Japan as a “temporary visitor”. Otherwise, you need to obtain a visa before entering the country.Temporary visitors from most countries are allowed to stay for up to 90 days.&nbsp;<h2>Money</h2>The official currency of Japan is the Japanese yen (¥; JPY). Most stores take credit cards, although many businesses and some smaller hotels do not. Some have a minimum charge as well as a surcharge. Almost any major bank will provide foreign currency exchange.&nbsp;<h2>Drinking Water</h2>Tap water in Japan is generally safe to drink.&nbsp;<h2>Electricity</h2>The voltage in Japan is 100 volt which is different from most regions of the world. Japanese electrical plugs have two non-polarised pins.

The US State Department states: "there are no laws regulating or addressing same-sex couples adopting in Japan." 
It was reported in 2016 that many same-sex couples have been rejected by public authorities and are told “Children will never be fostered” by same-sex couples and “couples of friends are not accepted.” 
There is however one documented case from 2016 of same-sex foster parents in Osaka.

Gay men in Japan are banned from donating blood following one (1) year after male-male sexual contact. Japanese Red Cross opposses this practice.

In Japan, there are no laws restricting to discussion or promotion of LGBTQ+ topics.

Censorship or prohibition of discussing, promoting, or teaching LGBTQ+ topics in media, schools, and in the general public.

Prohibition of discrimination based on sexual orientation and/or gender identity.

Housing discrimination is illegal in Japan, and employment discrimination is illegal in Tokyo, Ibaraki and Akita (Nationwide pending)

While the Equal Employment Opportunity Law has been revised several times over the years to address sex discrimination and harassment in the workplace, the government has refused to expand the law to address discrimination against gender or sexual identity. The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has passed legislation banning discrimination in employment based on sexual orientation and gender identity. 
 
Companies in Japan consisting of ten or more employees are required to establish work regulations. In January 2018, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare revised the Model Rules of Employment which "stands as the example framework for work regulations", to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation and "gender identification". Article 15 reads: 
 
 In addition to what are provided for from Article 12 to the preceding paragraph, employees are prohibited from any other forms of harassment at the workplace that are damaging to the work environment of other employees such as by way of speech or behaviour related to sexual orientation or gender identification.

Sodomy ("keikan") was criminalized in 1873 with article 266 of the Meiji Legal Code, however, it was hardly ever punished, with only 20 recorded instances of sodomy during 1876 to 1881.

Since autumn 2003, the Urban Renaissance Agency, the government agency that operates government housing has allowed same-sex couples to rent units the same way as heterosexual couples at any one of the over 300 properties that it operates. This opened the way for more such action, as the Osaka Government in September 2005 opened the doors of its government housing to same-sex couples. 
 
In February 2018, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare created provisions addressing discrimination in housing, stating that "consideration must be taken to not deny lodging on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity."

Prohibition of discrimination based on sexual orientation and/or gender identity when applying for housing or discrimination by landlords / property owners.

Japan only recognizes heterosexual marriages. Some prefectures offer "partnership oaths" for same-sex couples, with some legal rights.

Marriage and marriage recognition between two people of the same biological sex and/or gender identity.

Article 24 of the Japanese Constitution states that "marriage shall be based only on the mutual consent of both sexes and it shall be maintained through mutual cooperation with the equal rights of husband and wife as a basis".

Japan has a Self Defense Force in place of a traditional military. There is no specific policy either banning or encouraging LGBT participation in the Self Defense Forces. Research by Sabine Fruhstuck has shown that many Japanese do not object to open LGBT service in the military provided it does not interfere with their performance.

The ability for homosexuals to serve in the military and be open about their sexuality.

Non-binary gender is not legally recognized in Japan.
