Osaka Castle 大阪城

Osaka Castle and its park area was a tourist highlight for locals and foreigners. So, how not to miss? N, of coz, hoping to catch sakura there.

There is a park that surrounds the castle tower. Just visiting the park is FOC. The park envelopes the castle tower. It's a simple one for the city dwellers. But it doesn't lack the space and beauty (since it's sakura & plum bloom season). The castle tower, which is also its history musesum, has an admission fee of 600Yen. A lot of the exhibits' information are in Japanese and with some English. There are very well preserved and interesting artefacts. Even if one isn't too interested in the history, entering the castle tower will gives one an opportunity to have a rather good 360-degree aerial view of Osaka.
