Good points

- It was fun because Pokemon appeared all over the town. I wanted to see all the panels, so I walked quite a distance for the first time in a while.

- The prize at the end was good. The acrylic charms were especially big and cool. If your favorite Pokemon is among the prizes, you should participate.

- Bad points

- The map is hard to see. I didn&#39;t understand the meaning of the dummy panels at first. I thought that many of the panels were in tricky locations for an event mainly aimed at children.

- It&#39;s difficult to go around without taking a break. It says 1-2 hours, but it&#39;s better to look around for more than 3 hours. (Especially if you go to points that are not related to the rally points) It&#39;s Umeda, so if you miss the timing, it&#39;s hard to find a place to rest, especially on holidays.

The museum inside Osaka Castle offers a good overview of the castle&rsquo;s history with some interesting displays and artifacts. The interior has been modernized with elevators and air conditioning, which makes for a comfortable visit, though it does contrast sharply with the traditional exterior. The view from the top is a highlight.

The Sun Ring isn&#39;t that large, so it&#39;s pleasant to explore. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Using a speed pass can save a lot of time, and some time-zoned packages are cheaper than the official website. Purchasing through Ctrip is even more convenient. Speed passes aren&#39;t tied to specific users, so if someone doesn&#39;t ride a ride, someone else can use it. Just scan the QR code, which is quite flexible.
