I declare Osaka Tower of the Sun my favorite attraction of this trip——

#Osaka Itinerary • My first impression of Tower of the Sun came from Tomihiko Morimi’s novel. I don't quite remember the story of the novel. But the strange building on the cover has always lingered in my mind. • With the popularity of World Expo, this Osaka World Expo building in the 1970s has once again attracted attention. As the flow of people increased as I got closer to the destination, I realized that this was a great place for families, frequented by citizens. A huge park with both natural scenery and cultural characteristics. In addition to the landmark building, the Tower of the Sun, the Expo '70 Commemorative Park also houses the Ethnology Museum and the Arts and Crafts Museum. • The popularity of the Tower of the Sun can also be seen from the number of reservations for visits to the tower. Two days in advance, I only made an appointment for after 3pm. All were sold out when we arrived on the day. Although it was also related to other market activities in the park that day. The photography requirements inside the tower are also very strict. For areas outside the first floor, you need to fill out a form and buy a ticket to apply for a shooting permit at a cost of 500 yen. • The biggest regret of the day must be that I slowly entered the Museum of Ethnology when it was almost closing time. The richness of the collection was beyond my expectations. I guess even an hour isn't enough. • The staff were really patient. We were used to the atmosphere of rushing people in half an hour in advance, but here they didn’t start broadcasting the urging until the last ten minutes. In the last five minutes, the security guard watched me run into an area I hadn’t seen and just reminded me in a low voice. In the last two minutes, there were still many tourists stopping to watch, and the staff was patiently waiting for the last guest to leave. • Another thing I really like is that there are many places for visitors to look up information both inside and outside the museum. This is quite touching. #OsakaTravel
