The Castle Town of Osaka & Treasure Hunting for Antiques (3x7)

Uitzenddatum: Apr 02, 2018

Our reporter goes on an excursion off the beaten track to learn about the little-known history and culture of Osaka between Shitenno-ji and Osaka Castle. He visits the temple district and explores a shopping street for a glimpse into daily life in this metropolis. Also, our correspondent takes us treasure hunting at a monthly antiques market in Kawagoe, Saitama Pref., a town that still retains vestiges of yesteryear. More than 100 stalls sell kimono pictures, everyday utensils and furniture.
