Osakajokoen Park

A vast 105.6-hectare park in central Osaka, home to historic structures including Osaka Castle's main tower. It's rich in seasonal flower spots — the Nishinomaru Garden with about 300 cherry trees, and a plum grove where 1,245 trees of 105 varieties bloom in profusion. Music concerts are frequently held at the Osaka Castle Music Hall and Osaka Castle Hall, and sports facilities like an archery range and the Shudokan hall are also on-site. Annual events include spring and autumn plant markets and nighttime cherry blossom viewing in the Nishinomaru Garden.
