After the Summer Siege of Osaka, Osaka under the Toyotomi period underwent a major transformation as the Tokugawa clan rebuilt the castle and developed the surrounding area, becoming the foundation of modern Osaka. The castle tower burned down in the mid-17th century, but Osaka Castle continued to be loved by people for a long time, and was called "Kinjo" (Spring Castle) and "Hanajo" (Flower Castle). 400 years have passed since the reconstruction of Osaka Castle. This exhibition will provide a three-dimensional interpretation of the castle's form during the Tokugawa period and the town that existed alongside it.
The Honmaru Palace existed in Tokugawa Osaka Castle until the end of the Edo period. This palace was built as the residence of the Tokugawa Shogun and was decorated with partition paintings by the Kano school. This exhibition will display detailed replicas (1/10 scale) of the Great Hall and the Copper Palace of the Osaka Castle Palace. Please enjoy the works of Kano Tan'yū, which were used as reference materials, materials related to the construction, and a folding screen depicting Osaka in the early Edo period.

Japan limited Mario Park, very interesting, suitable for children. The staff are very friendly, and the children will squat down to say hello to them. Overall, it is recommended. The park only provides carts for children under three years old. It would be better if children aged 6 or 7 could be considered.

While the castle itself may seem overrated, the surrounding and the park is absolutely a treat. I would definitely recommend to take the inter park train, walk around the castle and check out their merch shop.
