Tanabata is near, even the station has the bamboo to hang your wishes.
Here is the map of where I went this weekend. Namba to Shitennouji to Tennouji. There's an event in Shitennouji today.
Passing through Namba, a fake Inari shrine in Namba.
Gegege Kitaro on the wall next to an eating place.
Stairs going down 1.
The cafe where I ate Banana Parfait Curry. Look at the manga collection! Will definitely visit here again.
On the way to the temple. This is stairs going down part 2.
Not sure why the birds are wandering around this shop. It looks like an old abandoned shop. Even when I got closer to them, they didn't fly away...
Interesting architecture near temple/graveyard.
Entrance to Shintennouji temple. Still not that many people.
一人では生きられません。One cannot live alone.
Place to write your wishes to hang on the bamboo.
Warning on not to get close to birds because of the bird flu scare. Ehh...old news. Now is the new influenza scare, haha.
Schoolgirls getting ready to enter for the event.
I think this is supposed to be a fireman mascot.
Osaka also has its own big Gundam model! Made of cardboards though, and is only 3m high.
Note the small Gundam on the shoulder!
Heard a mother telling her son "Yes, we'll have to go to Tokyo to see the big one". *nods*
200 yen to watch a movie made by students (slideshow of photos of Osaka and people's wishes voices) and a short introduction about the universe, and the Gundam, I suppose. Great! Now I know there'll be a nationwide sun eclipse on 22 July!
By the time I got out, there are more people! But it's time for me to go home!
On the way back, I spot a small scramble crossing road.
