Have you ever wished to slow down and walk through history—side by side with your dog?

In this peaceful Japan walking tour, join me and my dog Sophie as we explore Osaka Castle Park, one of Osaka’s most beautiful and historic landmarks. Surrounded by stone walls, golden rooftops, quiet forests, and calm moats, this cinematic stroll reveals a gentle side of the city that many travelers never see.

From Morinomiya Station to the majestic Osaka Castle Keep, we follow a **dog-friendly route** through hidden gates, ancient paths, and relaxing nature spots. Along the way, you’ll discover the sparkling fountain, forest trails, Tamatsukuri Gate, Sakuramon Gate, Miraiza Osaka-jo, Gokuraku Bridge, and cozy dog-friendly cafés at JO-TERRACE OSAKA.

You’ll also hear the inspiring words of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, whose legacy still lives within these castle walls. Whether you’re a dog owner, a lover of Japanese history, or planning a scenic trip to Osaka, this video is for you.

Thank you for walking with us 🙂
