Tour the facility that produces Japanese coins and medals of honor and visit the historic coinage museum year-round. If you visit during the spring, you might catch the cherry blossoms on the Mint's 400 cherry trees.

Please note that even if you use the "Skip the Line: Kids Plaza Osaka Admission Ticket" sold by JTRweb limited, you cannot get priority entry. In order to redeem the ticket for an admission ticket, you must wait in line to buy the ticket. This is a very interesting children's museum and is the best way for travelers with children in Osaka. There are many educational and playful exhibits and activities for children. The Kids Town designed by Friedensreich Hundertwasser,an Austrian architect, is through the 4th floor and the 5th floor. In Japan, this is the only member of ACM, Association of Children's Museums.
An awesome experience for children (and adults). TV studios, nature sections, interactive games, play areas. Miniature kitchens for children to cook.

some of guests gave us these opinions・・・・ What a great pleasure to meet you today, and sincere thanks for taking the time to guide our students through the Tsunami Museum. Students loved and appreciated the experience, and we all learned a lot from you and your descriptions. Thank you. We all walked away understanding how important education is for helping people know what to do in the event of an earthquake and or tsunami. Thank you. I hope you‘ll visit NY again, and please do come to NYU - we’d love to see you at the Center for Global Affairs. Many thanks again for sharing your knowledge and expertise with our students. Very kind regards History is very important!!! I love how Japanese people remember and honor those who have died because of natural disasters. You feel, remember and then act in order to be prepared. Impression on softmeans are: Visual Material is good and real to understand everybody. The positive approach taken to combat natural disaster. If we know what will happen, we can reduce the effect of disasters. Learning lessons from past disasters are important to mitigation of disasters. Impresisive place to visit to again, knowledge above tsunami,I like the tsunami simulation theater. Thanks for your information about Tsunami.. I wish ever never again happened disaster in Japan. Thank you! Japan has utilized the past experiences for the management of the disater that may occur in future very well. Very interesting history about tsunami! I found the Japanese Government or other oncerned agency very strong in the preparation phase of the disaster management. Evacuation drill and awarness program was effective. It is very important to keep memories of past disasters and let the community know and learn. Flood map, quantify the head of the tsunami in the coastal line, my report job is tsunami with application in Lima-Perui

A museum of "theater city" Dotonbori. Which replicates a 200-year-old theater. It have small revolbing stage. Revolbing stage was born at Dotonbori theater district in 1758. You can ride revolbing stage, and take movies or photos as if you are the "Kabuki actor". (Kimono in photo panels is real Kabuki actor costume! If you shoot in two dimensions, it looks like you're really wearing it.) Main exhibit is a 20minute time travel with audio plays in English, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. You can get the "theater city" Dotonbori Map, which is only available to visitors. The map is an excerpted representation of only the theater city's related facilities, and also shows the old times. It comes with coupons that offer discounts from certain facilities nearby.
We enjoyed our experience here. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. We watched a 13 minute video presentation about the history of theatre in Dotonbori while enjoying complimentary tea and sweets. We then watched a performance including magic and tricks. It was interactive (audience involvement) and lots of fun. We then tried out the revolving stage and had plenty of photo opportunities. Our children (aged 9 and 7) enjoyed it very much. Highly recommended for families seeking a quiet rest from the shops and restaurants.
