A private cherry blossom viewing spot 15 minutes from Dotonbori, Osaka --- Takatsu Shrine & Takatsu Park

#OsakaSakura About 15 minutes away from Dotonbori, there is an elegant small shrine - Takatsugu Shrine. Next to it is Takatsugu Park. Both places are private cherry blossom viewing spots for locals. The stone steps of the shrine and the surrounding areas of the park are all planted with cherry blossom trees. It is a small and beautiful cherry blossom viewing spot with few crowds and a good leisurely feeling. Takatsugu Shrine is a shrine dedicated to Emperor Nintoku. It has a long history and is said to have existed when Osaka Castle was first built. It is even recorded in Japanese poetry and is quite quaint. This power spot is only a 5-minute walk from Tanimachi 9-chome subway station, making it very convenient. In addition to cherry blossoms, Gaojin Park also has plum and plum blossoms, as well as many children's play facilities. It is a great place for people to take their children for a walk or have a picnic to enjoy the cherry blossoms in spring. #Osaka #Takatsu Palace
