Osaka Museum of History

Osaka Museum of History (Osaka Rekishi Hakubutsukan) is not the type that we are used to generally have to see the classics. Because this place is located in the super modern building of NHK Osaka, not only can you enjoy the exhibits of Osaka’s history. But it is also another view point of the city that is as beautiful as anywhere else. Especially being able to see the famous Osaka Castle from a high angle in a chill way. Because they are very close to each other, just cross the road to reach Osaka Castle. Especially during the cherry blossom season in the spring at the garden that surrounds the castle to see from a high angle, this is comfortable without crowding with anyone. It’s also a corner to see the beautiful sakura.

This museum was built in 2003 with quite a few different exhibits. There is also a simulation for each era, but the era is divided by layers. There is also a giant model that shows the history of Osaka in detail. It’s called since Osaka was the first capital of Japan anyway. Originally, this building used to be the location of the Naniwa Palace, making it very suitable to be a place to display stories about the past. Which used to be the location of historical landmarks, allowing us to experience old things under a simulated atmosphere that is perfectly done Anyone who wants to see the trading atmosphere of the past generation should not miss the end. Because there will be an exhibition about shops and shopping districts during the Showa Period (Showa Period) to see how different they are from today. It can be said that it is a museum that is worth visiting when coming to Osaka.
