Japan has many castles, some of them are very ancient, indeed the original structures. Osaka Castle is not one of those, having in fact been rebuilt in 1931 and completely remoded 10 years ago. In its role as one of Osaka’s most significant historical and cultural properties and pride of the city, has been a popular tourist spot for more than 60 years, recently with a lot of visitors from Asia. The beautiful appearance of the original castle, which was embellished with white walls and glittering gold, has been revived by re-plastering the outer walls, restoring ornamental fixtures, and reapplying gold leaf. The Main Tower has been reinforced to withstand an earthquake of 7 magnitude. Contents: log book, and collected non value stuff. You can use the subway, Chuo or Tanimachi lines or the JR loop line Morinomiya station. When you enter the park, enjoy your trip back into the centuries, and follow your new coordinates in the hint below.
