Why Visit Osaka Castle?

Located in a public park in this port city, Osaka Castle played a crucial role in the unification of Japan in the 16th century. Visitors can explore 8 floors and 5 outdoor levels, offering panoramic views of the Osaka skyline. The 20th-century reconstruction closely resembles the original castle keep. The castle's history includes several significant events, such as fires and clan conflicts. A notable feature is the museum in the main keep, featuring exhibits on Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a key figure in the Sengoku period. There are also life-size replicas of shachihoko, symbols of Japanese culture. The 7th floor includes a panoramic observation deck with 360-degree views of the city.
