Geocache Description:

South Gate entrance of Kuromon.

Experience Kuromon or Black Gate, all 580 meters with at least 8 different entrances, over 170 stalls. Called Osaka South's Kitchen. See, smell, taste free samples. Specialities: tuna fresh from the Samurai Cutters (one of three Osaka virtual caches) and the poisonous Fugu or puffer fish. Saturday is the day Osakians come for bargains.
Closest entrance from Nipponbashi Station is: N 34 40.247 E 135 28.715 gets you to the North entrance gate.Stroll down to South entrance gate (with your gps turned off as it won`t receive signals under the roof) turn your gps on again when you get under some sky 500 meters South, continuing south till you pick up a couple satellites, turn around and walk back towards the gate if you want to get a reading (although your readings may be jumping) to begin your search. As in any big city with limited sky reading, You should probably rely on the hints more than your gps tracking skills if you really want to find without attracting a lot of attention.

Nippombashi Station on the Sakaisuji Subway Line, the Sennichimae Subway Line and the Kintetsu Line. Just North of Den Den Street Cache.
