South Osaka

Travel Guide

秋の南大阪「岸和田城」の天守閣
100th Anniversary Monument of Osaka City University, built in 1980.
We took the Nankai line to the Sumiyoshitaisha station. After a short walk from the station we came upon our first Shrine, Sumiyoshi-taisha. Best known for its beautiful red orange bridge and water features, it is the oldest and largest shrine in Japan.

Very well-equipped room, suitable for longer stays. The residence is very close to the Hanazonocho metro station (accessible by elevator), making travelling on a 1-day pass ideal.
