Peaceful Shrine near Honmachi Sta.

#thingstodo Nice and peaceful shrine near Hommachi Station. Visited during the evening rush hour and it was surprisingly empty. Had a good stroll about to learn more about Japanese culture and beliefs. One of the major attraction here is the 400 plus year-old camphor tree. It is the oldest tree in Osaka, surviving even the World War 2 bombings. There is a belief that if you touch it, you will receive 'power' to rejuvinate yourself.
