In 1931 (Showa 6), in conjunction with the reconstruction of Osaka Castle's castle tower, this purely Japanese-style garden was developed by the city of Osaka as the garden of Kishu Palace, which was built on the east side at the time. The central pond has an area of 300 tsubo (300 tsubo) in the shape of a crane wing, with a rocky mountain in the background.

Osaka Castle is the most difficult castle to attack, built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who aimed to unify the country. It is 55 meters above the ground, with five levels and eight stories. The golden ornamentation everywhere shines brilliantly, including the ornate ornamentation of the shachi on the topmost roof and the fushitora (tiger) under the kagaran (columns). It is known as a representative example of castle architecture that rises dignifiedly against the blue sky. Note: Entry into the castle keep is not included.

Hokoku ShrineThis shrine is located in front of Osaka Castle's Sakura Gate and is dedicated to Lord Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Lord Toyotomi Hideyori, and Lord Toyotomi Hidenaga. The ruins of Osaka Castle are where the followers of Ishiyama Honganji Temple fought against Oda Nobunaga's onslaught for 11 years during the famous Battle of Ishiyama. The area was so fortified that even Nobunaga gave up on conquering it and made peace with it, so Hideyoshi chose this area to pacify the country and build his castle, and is said to have the closest connection to the enshrined deity. It is considered to be the perfect sacred area for worship.

Osaka Castle has four entrances and exits. One of them is Aoyamon. The gate in the square there is called Aoyamon. You may think it is an important cultural property because of its magnificent Aoyamon, but unfortunately it is not, as it was restored.

During the Osaka Summer Battle, Toyotomi Hideyori, the lord of Osaka Castle, and his mother, Yodo-dono, committed suicide immediately after the castle fell. A monument that is believed to be the place of their suicide is located in this vicinity.

Engraved stones refer to stones carved by retainers of feudal lords ordered to participate in the construction of Osaka Castle's stone walls, as well as by stonemasons. During the process of gathering and stacking stones, they carved characters or patterns onto individual stones as needed. Furthermore, they carved the family crests of the responsible feudal lords onto the surfaces of the completed stone walls.
