Osaka might be known as a buzzing metropolis with skyscrapers and neon lights, but it is also a gateway to old Japan with sites like Kishiwada Castle (pictured). Built in the 1300s, the castle is full of attractions like Hachijin Garden – designated a National Site of Scenic Beauty! Top tip: If you’re in Osaka in September, Kishiwada Castle is home to the world-famous Kishiwada Danjiri Matsuri Festival – one of the wildest festivals in Osaka! Kishiwada Castle is temporarily closed but visitors can still enjoy the beautiful surrounds. 📷Great capture by @anthonyxc_. #VisitJapanAU. #Tradition
