It was a beautiful, fascinating and immersive experience, the immense gardens and the castle itself are something to take one's breath away, I recommend purchasing tickets online as I did, this allowed me to skip a long line to purchase tickets on site. The museum inside the castle is very well maintained and the view from the top floor terrace is wonderful. All this despite the fact that there was a fair amount of crowds as the visit itself allows for a constant and dynamic flow inside the castle. I highly recommend visiting the entire complex and if you are lucky at the dojo you might witness something really interesting.

Osaka Castle is one of the most iconic symbols of Japan. Surrounded by a large park and imposing stone walls, it offers a magnificent view of the city and a journey into the history of the feudal period. Carefully rebuilt after various destructions, it now houses a modern museum chronicling the life of feudal lord Toyotomi Hideyoshi and the battles that marked the unification of Japan. At night, the lighting makes its silhouette even more striking, while in spring the cherry blossom trees enhance its beauty. A must-see for anyone visiting Osaka, where tradition and modernity blend harmoniously. Very beautiful experience

Of course the line skipping part of the ticket is enough for the five stars it deserved. We spent many hours in the castle itself and enjoyed our visit there. There's so many little engagements to see and do, and the flow of the crowd movement was smooth even though we were there during the weekend and the horde of fellow castle raiders was huge. I wouldn't share more of the actual tour itself as I wouldn't like to spoil it for any of you. But it was worth it and probably for us this will be a once in a life time event and we were very glad to have book it with headout.com.

Purchasing tickets online helped us skip the queue. Was worth it to go up to the top, see the beautiful views from up the castle.
