Most Osaka Castle tours start in the 1500s. This one starts 7000 years ago — because the castle only makes sense once you understand the hill beneath it. Walk it with a resident historian. Discover Japan’s true origin story. A local historian who lives one block away guides a small group through 7,000 years of Osaka's human story — from Jomon hunter-gatherers to the final destruction of the Toyotomi clan in 1615. Discover why, for thousands of years, kings, queens, emperors, warlords, farmers and peasants have all considered this landscape, home. Before the tour, I will send GPS-capable historical maps directly to you. After, you will receive a full reference document covering everything we discussed. One continuous story you won't find on any other tour. Leave knowing why this hill has been worth fighting over for seven thousand years.
