This castle was built in 1583 by a Japanese Samurai Toyotomi Hideyoshi. The structure is built in a 1 square km ares on two raised platform. Theur are eight levels accessible by elevator on way up. From level 7 and 8 you can have a panoramic view of the Osaka city. The castle is surrounded by water filled section on all four sides.
We visited this place during our recent Japan trip. The travel on Osaka metro Day pass was smooth. From the metro station a 10 minutes walk we reached the outer boundary. From there you can avail electric vehicle ride to the main gate ( ¥ 300 one way). We preferred walking to the castle which took about 15 to 20 minutes. Our Metro Daily Pass allowed us quicker access to ticket counter and we went to the 5th level. From there we walked upto the top level. Rhe view of the city from the top was awesome. From there we had to walk down. Each floor has exhibits of Japanese and the samurai history, models pictures etc.
A must visit in a Japan trip to catch a glimpse of Samurai history.

Tnere are several areas of the Park where one can take photos of the castle, the moat, and the water.
There are benches in the park where one can sit down and rest for a short time. Also noted are some public restrooms and Lawson Snack Store.Written April 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

And the place is always fulled of visitors, adding vibes and vibrancy to the place.
In our recent revisit to Osaka, we also went there and as we were there early (around 10am), it was not that crowded then but in about an hour's time, it's packed with people.
Lots of cafes, restaurants, eateries, departmental stores, among the boutique, pharmacy and convenience stores are in the area and so you need not worry where to shop or eat!Written December 15, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Unique experience! Good views from the circular viewing "observatory."Written April 14, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LolaGo1Washington DC, DC6,628 contributionsI came here around noon for lunch after visiting the Castle. There are shops, restaurants, stores, Gamimg Places, etc It was crowded with people, mostly enjoying the local Osaka street foods.
Also noted in this area are underground shopping areas leading to the various gates or entrances to the Metro and Train Lines. It is nice to shop here or just looking around because of the air conditioners.
Outside: Better to visit in the pm when the neon lights are on, no heat from the sun, more people shopping and eating, more restaurants are open, people simply having fun!Written April 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
