My daughter watches this anime series and she requested we go here. Well it was worth seeing the happiness on my daughters face when we we thru with the place. It is very interesting even if you don't know anything about anime like me. The diorama that greets you is beautiful. There is also push button history speakers. Of course it's in Japanese. But the staff are very friendly to tourists. The district itself where it is located is so peaceful it's like a quiet town. It's one train ride from namba station. Try to get the rapid line as it cuts travel time by about 20-25 minutes. Beautiful place indeed!

Nice Museum and tea cerimony
Located in Sakai, you can start with a movie to learn briefly about Sen and Akiko.
After the visit, I do recommend the tea ceremony there in a casual way.
