22. Osaka: OSAKA HEART AND SOUL

Osaka is a dynamic city with a dynamic history. Photographer Alfie Goodrich captures the food culture of the "Kitchen of Japan," the waterways that made it a commercial center, and the architecture reflecting the era when it surpassed Tokyo economically. He meets the spirited and sometimes flamboyant residents. The journey fittingly starts at the Osaka Castle, which was founded by warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi who was known for his flamboyant sensibility.
