    Osaka Minamikawachigunkananchou Hirokawa 43
    This temple located in the Hirokawa area of Kanan-cho is famous as the place where the monk Saigyo ended his life. A famous cherry blossom viewing spot, the famous Suya-zakura (red weeping cherry blossoms) on the grounds have thin trunks and a deep pink dainty appearance when they begin to bloom. The best time to see them is usually from the beginning to end of April. Approx. 1,500 cherry blossoms such as Yoshino cherry blossoms, yae-zakura and weeping cherry blossoms bloom nearby, and the area was chosen as one of Osaka's top 100 green landscapes. The 13th En no Gyoja's sacred site of the Saigoku Yakushi 49 Temple Pilgrimage, possesses items such as a wooden seated statue of a saint who achieved complete emptiness, a prefecture-designated tangible cultural property, and a wooden Kobo Daishi seated statue.

    Osaka Minamikawachi-gun Chihayaakasakamura Chihaya

    南海 河内長野駅から登り坂道をバスで揺られる事30分間、金剛登山口のバス停で降車。バス停先の左側に千早城跡に登る急な石段がある。殆どがボコボコした560段の石段を登ると四の丸跡に出る、更に先の三の丸跡を進むと千早神社のある二の丸に着く。城郭を感じる物は何も無いが往時の楠公の活躍を偲ぶ。因みに本丸跡は神社の奥に。100名城スタンプが設置されている金剛山麓まつまさに向かい下城。

While Osaka prefecture is the country's second smallest prefecture, its capital, Osaka City, is the country’s third-largest and arguably one of the most popular in the Kansai region thanks to its vibrant nightlife, the Osaka people’s openness, and its much-loved cuisine, which has earned it the nickname "the nation’s kitchen."
