Chuou Kokaido(中央公会堂)


Chuou Kokaido that is public hall isn't so far from Osaka Securities Exchange. It takes just 3 minutes or something like that. This area is kind of business area because beside the hall has Osaka public library, Osaka city hall and Osaka branch of Japan Bank. Anyway the hall was built a hundred years ago by donation of some stock dealer who worked in Osaka Stock Exchange. Long time ago, Osaka was really center of Japanese economy and at that time many supports who cared social. Japanese think our custom is not like American people who gave donations many situation, but actually Japanese had had that kind of custom like US.
