You don't need a ticket to visit, so you can just stop by if you're passing through. Really nice~

Dogo Onsen Hanayuzuki
A hot spring ryokan just a short walk from Dogo Onsen Honkan, one of Dogo Onsen’s top attractions. Enjoy Dogo’s famous waters, said to be among Japan’s oldest, in a spacious public bath that can accommodate around 100 guests, plus a scenic open-air bath with both hot and warm pools so you can choose your perfect temperature.
Awesome location—you can walk to Dogo Onsen Honkan and the shopping street!

Tsutenkaku Tower
A steel tower which looks like the Eiffel Tower and 75 meters high was built In 1912, on top of a building which was the motif of the Arc de Triomphe, and named “Tsutenkaku” meaning “A building reaching the heaven'' by Nangaku Fujisawa, a Confucian in the early Meiji period. After being broken down due to a fire, citizens lobbied for rebuilding and the current 2nd Tsutenkaku was built in 1956.
The inside of Tsutenkaku Tower has a cool retro vibe. There are displays about Osaka's history and culture, plus lots of interesting stories about the tower itself.

Mt. Takagi Observatory
The Mt. Takagi Observatory, located about 10 minutes up a mountain path from the World Heritage Site Yoshino Mikumari Shrine in the Okusenbon area of Mount Yoshino, the highest elevation in Yoshino, offers a panoramic view of Mount Yoshino and the nearby peaks of Mount Kongō and Mount Katsuragi. Known historically as the site where Prince Moriyoshi based his operations during the Battle of Genko against the Kamakura shogunate, this spot captivates hikers and tourists alike.
The observatory's facilities are really well maintained, making it a super comfortable place to enjoy the view.
