All Reviews of Expo’70 Commemorative Park

Expo ’70 Commemorative Park in Osaka is a large park created on the former site of the 1970 Japan World Exposition. The grounds are very spacious and full of greenery, and the most eye-catching landmark is the Tower of the Sun, designed by Taro Okamoto.

Standing 70 meters tall, the Tower of the Sun has a very avant-garde design. Even after all these years, it still stands out in the park and remains its most iconic feature.

The park covers about 264 hectares and includes different areas such as the Natural and Cultural Gardens and the Japanese Garden. With lawns, forests, and all kinds of scenery woven together, you could easily spend an entire day exploring at a leisurely pace.

However, after actually visiting, I felt that the park was just too big! Unless you’re a strong walker, I recommend choosing one facility or one area per visit and taking your time exploring it.

I really love that inside the Expo Park, there's the Tower of the Sun, designed by Japanese artist Taro Okamoto for the Expo. Even after the Expo ended and most buildings were taken down, the Tower of the Sun was left standing. That really moved me.

It's a huge and peaceful park with lots of different flowers. The blooms inside are really beautiful.

The symbol of Expo’70 Commemorative Park has stood strong for so many years. It's said to have mysterious powers and really represents the pride of Japan in the 1970s.

You can easily spend a whole day at Expo '70 Park, especially if you include the nearby animal museum and LaLaport.

This is a really big park. It's a bit far from the city, but if you love spending time outdoors, this place is perfect for you.
