Grand Green Umeda in Osaka

I recently visited the newly opened multi-purpose facility "Grand Green Osaka" in the Umeda area of Osaka! The centerpiece of this urban space is the approximately 45,000-square-meter Umekita Park, where greenery and waterfront areas blend harmoniously, creating a relaxing atmosphere. The 120-meter-long canopy designed by SANAA adds an artistic touch to the outdoor space, making it perfect for leisurely walks or picnics. In the South Building, you'll find Asia's first "Time Out Market OSAKA." With 17 diverse eateries and two bars, you can enjoy a wide range of Kansai cuisine, including takoyaki, sushi, ramen, and craft beer—all in one place! The lineup also caters to coffee breaks and post-meal drinks, featuring options like premium coffee at "LOHE," tropical vibes at "Koko Head Café," and local craft beer at "CRAFT BEER BASE leaf." Additionally, the facility includes Hilton and Hankyu hotels, as well as the urban hot spring "Umekita Onsen REN Wellbeing Park," making it a great spot to relax all day. Whether you're visiting for business or leisure, this "new era Osaka city" packed with greenery, gourmet food, and relaxation is definitely worth experiencing again. 😊 📍 Address: Ofukacho, Kita-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture 🕰️ Open 24 hours 💰 Admission: Free
