Oboke and Koboke Gorges

Oboke and Koboke Gorges extend for approximately 5 miles and were carved over 200 million years by the swift-flowing Yoshino River as it crosses the Shikoku Mountains. The gorges are known for their towering, sculpture-like scenery. The rock formations and V-shaped valleys visible up close offer valuable insight into the formation of the Japanese archipelago, earning the area designation as a National Natural Monument.

The cliffs in the Oboke and Koboke gorge are seriously impressive! So much greenery and the sound of the river—it's super relaxing. Feels like it really refreshes your soul.

Tower of Osaka Castle

Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who unified the country during the Azuchi-Momoyama period (1568-1600), began construction of the tower of Osaka Castle in 1583 and completed it in 1585. The castle was later destroyed during the Osaka Natsu no Jin（summer campaign of Osaka） in 1615, but was rebuilt by the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1626. However, the castle keep was destroyed by lightning in 1665. In 1931, the castle tower of the Toyotomi period was reconstructed with donations from Osaka citizens.

Just taking photos in the park outside is enough. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend going up to the main keep.
