Hozen-ji Temple (Pass by)
Built in 1637, Hozenji Temple pays homage to Fudo Myoo, one of five guardians of Buddhism. During the 1600s, Namba and the surrounding area of Dotonbori were blossoming as a centre for entertainment, with dramatic performances of kabuki and bunraku taking place throughout the district.

Kuromon Market
  • 10m
Kuromon, which literally means “black gate,” was originally a fish market that opened around 1822 (and was approved as an official market in 1902). The name is said to have come from the black gate of Enmyo Temple, which stood in this area until 1912, the last year of the Meiji Period. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Namba Yasaka Shrine (Pass by)
The Namba Yasaka Shrine is said to have been commissioned by the Emperor Hanzei in honour of his father, Emperor Nintoku. The present day Kawachi Matsubara City was the original site of the shrine. After Hideyoshi Toyotomi began the construction of the Osaka castle, it was moved to its present location.
