Great museum. Really interesting exhibits. Beyond the usual things there are lots of other incidental items dotted around the site. Beyond that of course this place is famous for its collection of cherry trees. Well worth making the effort to get out here. Lovely to walk around the surrounding area along the river too. There's no entrance fee because people complained that they were trying to 'make money' ;-)

(Translated by Google) Visited at 14: 30-15: 30 on Saturday in November. (Last entry is at 16:00, last exit is at 16:45) Regardless of Saturday, the number of people I saw in the hall was easy to go with less than 20 people. Arrived while taking a walk along the river from Tenmabashi Station on the Tanimachi Line. Free of charge. There were not too many exhibits and not too few, and we spent about an hour in the hall without getting tired of handling things that are quite familiar to us as money. It was displayed so that the history of the Mint and the ingenuity that has been elaborated on Japanese money were easy to understand. There is also an exhibition corner where children can enjoy, so I think it's okay to bring parents and children together. When I went there were many couples, couples, etc. (I went alone ...). There were no postings that prohibited photography in the hall, but I went around without taking pictures. But there was a place to take a commemorative photo. Can I pay for it? It was stating! Famous for its cherry blossoms, but the autumn leaves were just beautiful (Original) 11月の土曜日の14:30-15:30に来館。 (最終入館は16時、最終退館は16:45まで)土曜日に関わらず私が館内でお見かけした方はトータル20名以下で回りやすかったです。 谷町線天満橋駅から川沿いを散歩しながら到着。 料金なんと無料。 展示物も多すぎず少なすぎず、貨幣という自分たちにかなり身近なものを取り扱っているだけに飽きずに1時間ほど館内で過ごしました。 造幣局建設の歴史や日本の貨幣に凝らされている工夫が理解しやすいように展示されていました。 子ども楽しめるような展示コーナーもあり、親子連れでもいいかと思います。私が行った時はカップル、ご夫婦さんなど2人で来ている方が多かったです(私は一人で行きました...) 。 館内は写真撮影禁止の掲示はなかったですが、一応撮影せずにまわりました。 でも記念撮影をする場所はありました。 有料でもいいのでは？という内容でした！ 桜で有名ですが、ちょうど紅葉もきれいでした😊

(Translated by Google) It is a place to make coins, but it is famous for passing through. It's located along the Okawa River, so while visiting the museum You can also enjoy the cherry blossoms. (It is closed during the walk-through period.) Founded in 1884, we are currently making 500 yen nickel brass coins, 100 yen white copper coins, They are 50 yen bronze coin, 10 yen bronze coin, 5 yen brass coin, and 1 yen aluminum coin. (Original) コインを造る所ですが通り抜けで有名です。 大川沿いに在るので博物館の見学のついでに 桜も見られ堪能できます。 （通り抜け期間はお休みです。） 明治4年に創業され、今作っているのは500円ニッケル黄銅貨幣、100円白銅貨幣、 50円白銅貨幣、10円青銅貨幣、5円黄銅貨幣、1円アルミニウム貨幣です。

(Translated by Google) Every year, I come through. Many kinds of cherry blossoms are wonderful, and once again Japan is reminded that cherry blossoms look the best. (Original) 毎年、通り抜けに訪れています。沢山の種類の桜が見事で、やはり日本には桜が一番似合うと再認識させられます。

The Mint Museum Sakura walkway is fantastic during spring/full blooms because you can see hundreds of varieties of cherry blossoms. It's interesting to walk through and compare and appreciate the differences of each variety. Every year they have a "cherry blossom variety of the year" so keep you eye out for which is this year's blossom! At the end of the walkway there is a place where you can see that year's cherry blossom on a mint piece, cool souvenir. The walkway is one way only so be sure to enter the right place. There are plenty of people directing foot traffic so it should be easy to identify. Also be aware that cherry blossoms are plants and do not bloom on command! Since there are many varieties, they will not all bloom at the same time. If you are lucky to be there during a majority if the trees' full bloom, take your time and enjoy! The daylight and night time experiences are also very different and beautiful in their own way. On the walkway below and running parallel to the cherry blossom walkway are many food and game vendors. Lots of beer, street food, and sweets available! Perfect for a snack or meal + cherry blossom viewing.

Although there is no word in English (except for: thank you for not touching) the museum's collection and the drawings describing the history of coins are very interesting. There is no admission fee and despite of that the museum was almost empty. You can also try to pick up sacks of coins that weigh from 5 to 20 kg ( or something like that). I would recommend everyone even non-Japanese speaking. Beautiful garden with around 150 different species of cherry trees.

Admission is free, and the museum was way better than I thought. Although they lack English descriptions I think they make it up for it by having a few videos and the coins on display. Access is easy by bus from Umeda station.

It was a beautiful spring morning when we arrived here. While we originally intended to look at the sakuras only, the museum looked quaint enough from the outside, so it piqued our interest. It was great to see the history of the Japanese currencies and also enjoy the beautiful sakuras. I managed to find a green sakura which I have never seen before. Awesome experience and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Great mint museum with free entrance fee. You'd see many historical pieces of power equipment for coin manufacturing. If you are walking from the riverside, you might take a long trip as the premise has a very tight security with fences. Their coin verification machine is quite fun for kids as well.

Very interesting insight into the history of Japanese money. I was fortunate to visit as part of a school trip so we had a guided explanation in Japanese and factory tour too (not sure this is available for all). Free to enter. There is an English section on their website. I imagine it is very beautiful by the river in spring.

(Translated by Google) It's free, but the exhibits are substantial and educational. (Original) 無料ですが、展示物は充実しており、勉強になる。

(Translated by Google) It is good to learn both the history and knowledge of money. There were few people in the hall, and I was able to look carefully. It feels like a secret of Osaka. (Original) 貨幣の歴史・知識ともに学べて良いです。館内も人が少なく、じっくり見ることができました。大阪の穴場のように感じます。

(Translated by Google) Free of charge is amazing with this content. You can learn the history of money from east to west while seeing the actual thing. There are Olympic medals, medals, commemorative coins, etc. (Original) この内容で無料は凄い。 古今東西の貨幣の歴史を現物を見ながら学べます。 五輪のメダルや勲章や記念コインなども置いてます。

(Translated by Google) You can see very valuable materials. The old coins were good, but the memorial coins were also worth seeing (Original) 大変貴重な資料がみれます。 昔の貨幣もよかったですが、記念コインも見ごたえがありました

(Translated by Google) You can put it in for free and there is a monument highlight (Original) 無料で入れて、貨幣の見所ありあり

(Translated by Google) The currencies on display are very good and are in excellent condition. There are also commemorative coins and medals and medals that you will never see. The medals worn at the "feast ceremony" were also exhibited, but the guards arrived at the shooting NG and the guard was guarded. The process of making money was explained using 500 yen coins. (Original) 展示されている貨幣は大変状態の良いものがコレクションされていて流石です。記念硬貨やまず目にする事がないであろう勲章やメダルも展示されています。「饗宴の儀」で身に付けられていた勲章なども展示して有りましたが撮影NGで監視の方が着くなどガッチリガードされていました。貨幣の製造過程は５００円硬貨での説明でした。

(Translated by Google) I'm glad that I could see precious ancient coins and oval in Japan and the world. I can learn about the history of Japanese moneymaking and study it. Especially those who like commemorative coins should definitely go. In spring, the cherry blossom trees are also famous. There is a gate on the north side of the Mint, where you write down, put a name tag, and walk about 200m into the hall. Please be aware that there is a unique rule that prohibits eating and drinking in the building. (Original) 日本や世界の貴重な古代のコインや小判を見ることができて良かったです。日本の貨幣製造の歴史も学ぶことができて、勉強にもなると思います。特に記念硬貨が好きな人は絶対に行くべきです。春は桜並木も有名だそうです。 入り口が造幣局の北側にゲートがあって、そこで記帳し、名札をつけて、200mほど歩いて館内に入る。なおかつ館内飲食禁止という独特なルールがあるので気をつけてください。

(Translated by Google) Last spring, I had only seen it in the news, so I walked from Kyobashi Station to the story and walked to the Mint. Because it was different from Yoshino Yoshino, I thought it was pretty good. (Original) 去年2018年春、ニュースでしか見た事がないので、話のネタに京橋駅からキョロキョロしながら歩いて造幣局へ着くと桜の通り抜けは南側から一方通行ですと言われた。ソメイヨシノと違うので、まあまあやなと思った。

(Translated by Google) If you like money, you should go. You can study and tour for free. (Original) 貨幣好きなら行くべきですね。無料で勉強、見学できます。

(Translated by Google) Satisfaction once you go There are reservations and it takes time (Original) 一回行けば 満足 予約もいるし お手間かかる

🌸

(Translated by Google) It was an interesting museum that couldn't be considered free The road to the museum and the scenery are good, and you can understand the history of money very carefully inside, and there are many historical materials and commemorative coins, so I am quite satisfied. Mint? It seems that it is possible to observe the work, but be careful as the tour has been canceled due to the corona virus. (Original) 無料とは考えられないくらい興味深い博物館でした 博物館までの道のりも景色が良く中もとても丁寧に貨幣の歴史がわかり歴史的資料や記念コインなんかも多数あるのでかなりの満足感あります 造幣？作業の見学も可能のようですがコロナ禍で今は見学中止されてるのでそこは注意です

It is one of beautiful scenes in Osaka during cherry blooming season. It gives great information about Japan coins development history and displays all coins including special coins such as Olympics medals etc. produced in Japan.

It's the Mint Museum located within the Mint Bureau, where you can explore for free. Please follow the instructions provided by the guide as some exhibits may prohibit photography and videography.

Very interesting - a good way to spend an hour or two. Helpful staff. Free to visit and surrounded by Sakura Trees. (Japanese Cherry)

(Translated by Google) Along the river Mint I bought a souvenir only here ❗️ (Original) 大川沿いの 造幣局 ここだけのお土産も買って❗️

(Translated by Google) I didn't expect much because there was no admission fee, but it was a very spectacular museum. (Original) 入場料無料だったのでそんなに期待していなかったのですが、すごく見ごたえのある博物館でした。

A great place to bring the family. There's a section for kids so they can take advantage of the videos to learn more about the mint. The museum even allows you to purchase numismatic products on site but remember that it is a for profit agency so you will pay a premium on them. I was drawn in by the cherry blossoms and when you're walking it is a bit tricky to get into but once you're there you won't be disappointed. It is free and there are areas where photography is not allowed so keep that in mind as you tour the facility.

You can study about history of crafting for mint.

Google maps didn’t show the right way to the museum.. needs to be updated so that people don’t waste time and energy.. also, the museum while being nice has no English or other language translations available. All explanations of exhibits are in Japanese only. Not very helpful to those visiting from outside Japan.

Very well maintained coin museum which provide history of Japanese coin to modern days coins to public. Location: japan Mint, osaka Visit for: Coins, medals, coin production machinery prototype, POP portraits etc Ticket cost: Nil Special Note: If you want to purchase coins, medals etc then you have to walk to Mint shop which is also at same building at japan mint

Fantastic and a must see site. It is conveniently located near my hotel. Easy to check in. Museum is not terribly large but very well organized and presented. While I wish there is more English or Chinese description, I read enough to understand the history. Physical money has been important in history, but becoming even more so in a capitalist society like Japan after Meiji took power and made Japan an industrialized country based on specialization and commerce. Emperor Meiji stopped at this spot when he took power and visited Osaka. Osaka was the commercial capital of Japan and the place where innovations were. It also told many history about money in the East Asian context and about Money in China. Staff were very professional. Really enjoyed. At the end of the tour, there a block of pure silver and a block of pure gold. You can touch then by hand. TRY then!

We enjoyed the tour. It was maybe a little too difficult for our younger kids. (Age 6 and 8.) You cannot see the actual coins on most parts of the tour, but you can see it on the screen. Tour guide was very nice and the museum was very cool. Overall it was a very good experience.

(Translated by Google) The entrance to the museum is in the “Coinage Bureau”. The badge is registered at the entrance. There is a big time on the first floor. You can go straight to the building after reading. The 2nd and 3rd floors have a rich history of coinage culture. A free and long-term knowledge place. . (Original) 進入博物館的入口在「造幣局」，在門口登記領參觀徽章，一樓有個大時計，看完可以直接上樓，2、3樓有很豐富的造幣文化沿革，一個免費又能長知識的地方。

Great place for Sakura Season with the largest collection of different types of cherry trees. Wow!

Excellent free little museum about the history of minting in Japan and worldwide. Free English audio guide. Entrance at the north side near the bridge (sign in at the security desk).

Museum is ok 。 good place to learn something about Japan Numismatics

Free museum, quite interesting, requires a solid grasp of Japanese

WOWO OMG ME LOVE SO MUCH I CRY AT PAINTING OMG SO BEAUTIFUL I LOVE VERY MUCH

interesting experience, lots of cool coins and artifacts/stories relating to jp coins. not all the explanations are in english though, but staff are very friendly

Exceptional Sakura garden when in season! We spent almost our entire time admiring the rare Sakura trees and their blooms here! Do not miss during Hanami

We had a tour around the Mint factory and museum, great experience.

Nicely kept and preserved the minting process from early days and perfectly showcased all the briliant works done by Japan mint, Osaka.

(Translated by Google) I learned about the handling of currencies in the Meiji Restoration and the history of money production. Now I know for the first time that I also produce foreign currency. (Original) 明治維新での通貨の扱いや、貨幣製造の歴史を学ぶことができました。現在は、海外の貨幣も製造していることを初めて知りました。

(Translated by Google) It was very busy during the cherry blossom season, but I was able to visit it quietly and slowly. From the origin of money, I was able to go around interesting foreign coins, commemorative coins, etc. Closed at 16:30 At 16:00, the people in charge close and start closing the shutter. (Original) 桜の時期には大変な賑わいですが静かに、ゆっくりと見学できました 貨幣の成り立ちから海外の貨幣、記念硬貨など興味深く回ることができました 16時30分に閉館 16時には係の方々が閉じまり、シャッターを閉じはじめます

(Translated by Google) Exhibits that are more than enough for free. Especially, I didn't have a chance to learn about the transition of money after the Meiji era, so it was very interesting. I am satisfied with the exhibits of overseas coins and commemorative coins. (Original) 無料で十分すぎる展示物。 特に明治以降の貨幣の変遷は学ぶ機会が無かったので、大変面白かった。 海外の貨幣や記念硬貨も展示物で満足。

(Translated by Google) The history of money is displayed along with the real thing. I think that it is similar, but each history and circumstances are explained, and you can enjoy this unexpectedly. (Original) 貨幣の歴史が実物と共に展示されています。同じようなものと思いきや、それぞれの歴史や事情が説明されていて、これが存外に楽しめます。

(Translated by Google) You can understand a part of Japan's economic history! (Original) 日本の経済史の一端が良く解ります！

(Translated by Google) A facility that can be enjoyed thoroughly even though it is free. Due to the influence of corona, it seems that the exhibition on the second floor has been canceled. I didn't know that the medal was also made at the Mint. (Original) 無料なのにじっくり楽しめる施設。 コロナ影響でいまは二階の展示は中止しているみたい。 勲章も造幣局で作ってるの知らなかった。

(Translated by Google) Suddenly I was hit by an oval and fainted. (Original) いきなり小判に体当たりされ気を失いました。

(Translated by Google) A museum that displays the history of Japanese mint in a corner of the Mint site. Clearly, the Japan Mint thought it was in Tokyo, where the Bank of Japan is located, but this is the headquarters, and the bureaus are located in Saitama City and Hiroshima City. It was originally diverted because the thermal power plant facilities needed for mint became modern and unnecessary. Mint is a history of money, so there are various exhibits around money, so it is very interesting. It is basically a historical exhibition, but it may be good for children who have become interested in money to learn the history of money. We recommend that you use public transportation whenever possible as there are few coin parking around. (Original) 造幣局の敷地の一角にある日本の造幣の歴史が展示されている博物館。 てっきり、造幣局は日銀行がある東京にあると思っていましたが、こちらが本局となり、支局は"さいたま市"と"広島市"にあります。 もともとは造幣に必要な火力発電所の施設が近代になり不要となったために転用されたものです。 造幣は貨幣の歴史なので貨幣を中心に様々な展示物があるので、とても興味深いです。 基本的には歴史的な展示ですが、お金に興味を持ち始めた子供にも貨幣の歴史を学習してもらうのも良いかもしれません。 周辺にはコインパーキングなどは少ないので可能な限り公共交通機関の利用をお勧めします。

(Translated by Google) There are many varieties of cherry blossoms and they are beautiful. (Original) 櫻花品種多，美。

sakura season in April A lot of people

(Translated by Google) History of Money 😁 (Original) お金の歴史😁

(Translated by Google) I was able to provide a lot of information for free on holidays ✌️ The receptionist was asleep, but ... well, because of your love 😁 (Original) 休日に無料でかなりの情報を提供してもらえました✌️ 受付の方が居眠りしてましたが・・・まぁ、ご愛敬ということで😁

A pleasant place to visit and to bring kids. The Mint museum has free entry which is a plus factor, The museum has a wide range of things to show such as the history and production of Japanese coins from past to present, they also have alot of commemorative coins to show. Overall I found this place fun to visit although they did not have anything written in English which was the only down factor about this place.

(Translated by Google) I'll touch the bullion (Original) 金塊触れるよ🎵

(Translated by Google) Enjoy every year (Original) 毎年楽しみ

(Translated by Google) Beautiful every year (Original) 毎年綺麗

(Translated by Google) It's a wonderful exhibit. And it's free ヽ (・ ∀ ・) ノ (Original) 素晴らしい展示物です。しかも無料ですヽ(・∀・)ノ

(Translated by Google) Mint Museum You can learn about ancient, modern, eastern and western coins and their history. Chinese coins made in ancient times (shell coins, sword coins, horseshoe silver, etc.), Japanese coins, Tomimoto coins / Wadokaichin and dynasty twelve coins, Toyomi / Tokugawa era large format / oval and chogin , Local coins, etc., as well as gold and silver coins of the Meiji era, coins and commemorative coins currently in circulation, and various coins from all over the world are exhibited. There are various forms of money, and you can learn such stories as squares, diamonds, and hexagons. A very good place to relearn new aspects of history through the monetary system and money itself. I want to recommend it. (Original) 造幣博物館 / Mint Museum 古今東西の貨幣、その歴史を学ぶことができる。古代に作られた中国貨幣（貝貨、刀幣、馬蹄銀など）をはじめ、日本の貨幣、富本銭・和同開珎や皇朝十二銭、豊臣・徳川時代の大判・小判や丁銀、地方貨など、また、明治の金・銀貨幣をはじめ現在流通している貨幣・記念貨幣や世界各国のさまざまな貨幣が展示されている。貨幣にもいろんな形態があり、たとえば正方形型やダイヤモンド型、六角形型など、そんな小話も学ぶことができる。貨幣制度・貨幣そのものを通じて新たな歴史の側面を学び直すにはとても良い場所。オススメしたい。

(Translated by Google) Mint Bureau Spring cherry blossoms are a classic place to see cherry blossoms since childhood. Although it is spectacular with wonderful quintessential rare varieties and gorgeous cherry blossoms, it is desirable to visit after checking because the release period is fixed. (Original) 造幣局 春の桜の通り抜けは幼い頃からの定番の桜見物の場所。見事な八重　珍しい品種と華やかな桜達と見応えありますが　公開期間が決まってるので調べてからの来場が望ましいです。

(Translated by Google) You can understand the history of the Mint. (Original) 造幣局の歴史がよくわかる。

(Translated by Google) Located on the premises of the Mint. The nearest station is Minamimorimachi, Osakajokitazume or Temmabashi, but all of them walk for about 10 minutes. Admission is free. The focus is on explaining the history of money and money and displaying the actual products. In addition to the familiar theme of money, there are also active coins and coins that have been used until recently, so I think it's easy to get in. And unexpectedly ... It was a wonderful exhibition, though it was rude. If this is the case, it seems that it is okay to take a few hundred yen. The Mint is famous for passing through cherry blossoms, but it seems that the museum will be closed during that time due to the large number of people coming. (Original) 造幣局の敷地内にあります。最寄駅は南森町か大阪城北詰か天満橋あたりですが、いずれも10分くらいは歩きます。 入場無料です。お金、貨幣に関する歴史等の説明や実物の展示が中心です。 お金という身近なものがテーマな上に、現役の硬貨や最近まで使われていたものもあるので、入りこみやすいと思います。 そして思いのほか・・・というと失礼ですが立派な展示でした。これなら数百円程度はお金取ってもよさそうなくらい。 なお造幣局といえば桜の通り抜けが有名ですが、その時期は多くの人が来る関係で博物館は休みになるそうです。
