Oh gee, this is my last day in Osaka.

It is about 15 min to reach from center of the city Osaka by train.

It was built in 211.

Over 1800 years has passed.

Every new year maybe 2 million peoples come here to cerebrate.

The entity is life of water.

This is a famous bridge, looks pretty but please take care.

It is very sharp angled so if you are not good in walk, take another way to reach main building.

The words from Bible
Exodus 20:1-26
And God spoke all these words, saying, “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

“You shall have no other gods before me. “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me.
