Osaka Castle

The symbol of Osaka, dearly beloved by its citizens, Osaka Castle and its museum have become even more beautiful and easier for tourists to look around following large-scale repairs in 1997. There is a historical exhibition inside the castle, and the top floor is an observatory. The Osaka Castle Park that spreads across as if to embrace the Main Tower is famous for its seasonal flowers. Nearby is the Japan Mint, famous for its cherry blossoms. You can also enjoy a river cruise on the Aqua Liner waterbus.
