Another beautiful day in Japan :) Today I decided to go to Osaka and see the Osaka Castle.




One of the turrets around the castle.



It looks like a swamp animal in the moat.





The Osaka Castle













The well in front of the castle.








The view from the top of the castle










I wasn't that impressed by the museum. I was expecting it to be similar to the European ones with old furniture and looking like a castle on the inside. But in the infinite wisdom of the Japanese they put a modern museum inside.

I decided to cool down and try some of the Japanese shaved ice.... not really worth it either. just a bunch of hard ice pieces. Hawaiian shaved ice is much better.








I thought it was interesting that they had lines for the different trains



'Mildly Air-Conditioned Car'..... cute


Rice paddies visible from the train.


Since it was a short day I tried to see the imperial palace in Kyoto, but was 7 minutes too late.


Since I wasn't able to visit the imperial palace I took the metro to Higashihonganji Temple which was near the Kyoto station and the hotel.












An interesting art deco building...


Another interesting micro car.





Another failed attempt to find sushi - this time around the Nishiki Market


So... yes, another Ramen place.
