Visit Osaka-jo Castle, the symbol of Osaka City (Osaka)

Osaka Castle is one of my favorite places. I've been here many times, but I always think it's a great castle.Recently, Universal Studios Japan has become the most popular tourist destination in Osaka, but if you visit Osaka, you should definitely visit Osaka Castle. The most attractive features of Osaka Castle are its stone walls and the moat that reflects the walls onto the water.
