What makes 90mins Samurai Pilgrimage Osaka Castle Tour a unique experience ?
In 1931 (Showa 6), in conjunction with the reconstruction of Osaka Castle’s castle tower, this purely Japanese-style garden was developed by the city of Osaka as the garden of Kishu Palace, which was built on the east side at the time.
The central pond has an area of 300 tsubo (300 tsubo) in the shape of a crane wing, with a rocky mountain in the background. From the south side of the pond, the garden has been designed so that you can enjoy the view of the castle tower.
[16 guns and horizontal arrows]
Teppo-Haza has 16 guns in total, 8 with Kasaishi crenels and 8 with maruhasama on the earthen wall (of which 2 are on each Kasaishi crenel on the top of the megalith). Originally, there was a tamon turret on the stone walls on both sides of the earthen wall, and on the left side of the earthen bridge there was a kuruwa where a horizontal arrow could be hung.
View of Sakuramon Dobashi Bridge from Yokoyakake Point of Sakuramon Gate. Every earthen bridge in Osaka Castle always has a crossbar.
After the winter campaign in Osaka, Ieyasu devised a strategy against the Toyotomi side and included in the terms of the peace agreement the reclamation of the moat. In this way, not only the outer moat but also the inner moat, Ninomaru and Sannomaru, were reclaimed. And after stripping Osaka Castle…Osaka Natsu no Jin⚔ begins the war.
This shrine is located in front of Osaka Castle’s Sakura Gate and is dedicated to Lord Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Lord Toyotomi Hideyori, and Lord Toyotomi Hidenaga. The ruins of Osaka Castle are where the followers of Ishiyama Honganji Temple fought against Oda Nobunaga’s onslaught for 11 years during the famous Battle of Ishiyama. The area was so fortified that even Nobunaga gave up on conquering it and made peace with it, so Hideyoshi chose this area to pacify the country and build his castle, and is said to have the closest connection to the enshrined deity. It is considered to be the perfect sacred area for worship.
