Osaka Museum of History

On a rainy day, Jason and I decided to head to Osaka.  One of the places that was recommended to visit was the Osaka Museum of History.  I figured this would be a good review of the history of Japan and how large industrial cities have developed within Japan.  

We headed over there as soon as we arrived in Osaka.  They really did not want us to wear our wet rain coats.  We found the logistics a little complicated.  While fine that we took the elevators to the top floor, we took escalators to the next floor down.  At the end though, it had us take the escalators down an additional six floors.  Each floor required multiple loops.

The translation level to English was quite limited.  We found as well that parts of the museum were quite unedited.  It was challenging to understand how all the floors fit together.  

In theory, it was walking us chronologically through the development of the Osaka.  

One of the pieces of the museum we did like was the view of the Osaka Castle, which we did not end up visiting.  We wish we could have gotten better pictures of it!
