Trying To Find A Specific Spot (Osaka Castle?)

  • Trying To Find A Specific Spot (Osaka Castle?)

    I’m headed to Japan next week and very much wanted to visit the spot in the attached photo. That’s my father sometime in the mid 1980s. I’ve been trying to figure out where that is located, and it looks like it is somewhere around Osaka Castle but I’m not sure. I have watched several YouTube videos of people walking around the Osaka castle area and in none of those videos have I seen that spot.

    Does anyone have any insight on where that is and how I can find it? I’m hoping to take a picture in the same spot. Thanks for any help!

    Sounds like a fun challenge! You might want to put this in the Japan group as well.

    Found it! “The stone pillar of NAMUAMIDABUTSU” in the park around Osaka Castle.

    Here is the link to it in Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/P8FxST7Y7ecMeJHb7
