Welcome to Osaka, Japan! Osaka is a beautiful city, filled with so many activities, stories, and history. One of the most famous places in all of Osaka though is Osaka Castle Park. The park is of course home to the magnificent Osaka Castle, the striking centerpiece that played a pivotal role in Japanese History, as well as many other historical attractions, such as the Hokoku Shrine and the Nishinomaru Garden. This tour will begin at the true entrance to the castle, Otemon Gate, and we will then make our way through the most prominent locations in the park, to officially make it to the castle and through the final exit of the castle, Sakuramon Gate. Osaka Castle Park is a destination where the echoes of Japan’s feudal history resonate alongside the beauty of cherry blossoms and plums. I invite you to join me on this peaceful walk through the park, as we learn about the history of the castle and the importance this place holds.

Hello and welcome to this UCPlaces Tour of The Queen of The Danube! You’ve made it to the enchanting city of Budapest, where history and modernity intertwine along the scenic banks of the legendary river. As we embark on this walking tour, you'll discover why Budapest is often hailed as the "Queen of the Danube." The city of Budapest is divided into two main parts: Buda and Pest, which are separated by the Danube River. This division reflects the historical, geographical, and cultural differences between the two areas, which were officially united in 1873. Pest, where we are now, is flat and has developed into the commercial and administrative heart of Budapest. It was also a separate town before the unification, and has a vibrant cultural and social scene. Pest is flatter and more densely built-up, housing most of the city's commercial activities and government buildings. The western side of the Danube River, Buda, is characterized by its hills and historical landmarks, such as Buda Castle. It was historically a separate town and has always been seen as the more upscale and residential part of the city. Buda is known for its rolling hills and greener, more residential areas. We will explore this area later in the tour. My name is Dave, and it’s my pleasure to show you around this stunning city in the heart of Europe. Today we will visit historically and culturally significant landmarks, to give you the best experience possible. From castles and cathedrals, to outdoor spa's and urban legends, you'll find it here. We start here in Városliget, also known as City Park, the largest public park located in Budapest and one of the most popular recreational areas in the city. This is a good place to start as we are conveniently located near parking, if you drove, as well as public transportation stops. Today’s tour is a moderate walk, so hopefully you’re wearing your most comfortable pair. Don’t worry, we will stop for refreshments, and show you the best spots to take a break and relax.
