Geocache Description:

A mystery cache is set up at Osaka Station complex.


The cache is not at the listed coordinates. The final cache is near the Tenku-no-noen 天空の農園 which is a rental farm land located on the 14th floor of the Osaka Station North Gate Building. To find the cache, you must start your adventure on the 5th floor of the station that is called "Toki-no-hiroba Plaza" 時の広場.

Please answer following questions on the 5th floor.

Q1) How many symbolic clock towers do you see in the Toki-no-hiroba Plaza?

時の広場には時計台がいくつあるでしょうか?
The answer is A=[__].

Q2) What kind of shape is the bench under each clock tower if viewed from the clock?

それぞれの時計台の下のベンチは時計から眺めると何角形に見えるでしょうか?
If it is square or pentagonal or hexagonal or septagonal or octagonal,,,,
the answer is B=[4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8,,,,]=[__].

Now you have to look for a directory of the station. It can be found west side of the plaza near escalators to upper floors. Please find the "Tenku-no-noen Farm" 天空の農園 on the directory --- the Farm is on the 14th floor and you have to understand how to get there. All right? Let's take the escalators to go up and up. On the way up, you will find nice observatories, gardens, cafes and movie theaters. Refresh yourself, take time and enjoy them.

Once you come up to the 11th floor, escalators are no longer available to the upper floors. You have to take stairs all the way up to reach the 14th floor. If you have done it right, you are now on the 14th floor. There is a guide board to the "Tenku-no-noen Farm" 天空の農園. Follow it to reach the Farm that is located slightly lower level than where you are. Go all the way through, take several steps down and you finally reach there.

Here you are asked the final question.

Q3) How many solar cell panels do you see?

太陽電池パネルの数はいくつでしょうか?
The answer is C=[__].


Let's figure out the final coordinates!

N34° 42.(A-1)(C+1)(B)=N34° 42.[__][__][__]

E135° 29.(C+1)(B-2)(A)=E135° 29.[__][__][__]


The final location may be full of muggles and the coordinates may not be stable enough due to the surrounding structures. To help you find the cache as quickly as possible, you may continue a few more calculations.
D=A+C+1=[__]+[__]+1=[__],
E=D+3=[__]+3=[__]

The final cache is placed on the E[__]-th floor. If you are not yet sure where the cache is, please find a clock near the final coordinates and stand in front of the clock with your back facing to it. Now, move forward by (B[__]+6) steps then turn to your left and step forward by D[__] steps. The cache is right there. Take a break at the corner to retrieve it in stealth.

Enjoy and Good Luck!
