Osaka Photo Gallery

Osaka Castle's construction began in 1583 but it has been destroyed several times by war throughout its history. Entering the grounds is free, and the main building itself charges a reasonable 600 yen.

The observation deck is on a high vantage point in the restored tower. The perimeter is located outdoors, with netting in the way but there are big holes for cameras to peer through. There is also a heated interior portion that offered a great refuge on this cold wintry day.
