(36 reviews)Hi Jorg, Osaka castle had maybe too many visitors that you did not feel like going up there. But seemingly you enjoyed visiting the 1860s museum. I'm glad that you enjoyed that place with Kimono on you. I felt like I was with one of close friends of mine. Very nice review. Thank you for that. I really appreciate it. Hope you will continuously have a fun time while you are in Japan. Take Care, Toshi M.
