Umekita Park, a substandard urban park in Umeda, Osaka, is now open! We will also do a group run by a local team and Hui-Nam Running Club ♡.

Umeda is the gateway to Osaka, easily accessible from Kobe, Kyoto, and Shin-Osaka Station, which is served by the Shinkansen bullet train, and is an area undergoing large-scale redevelopment, led by the Grand Front Osaka commercial complex, which opened in 2013.

The recent opening of the town's first "Town Opening" has attracted a great deal of attention.Gran Green Osakawithin the "Umekita Parkis a very large urban park with a total area of approximately 45,000m². This is approximately the same size as one Tokyo Dome. When you consider that parks of the same size have opened in the vicinity of Tokyo Station and Shibuya Station, Tokyo's terminal stations, you will be surprised at the out-of-this-world size of Umekita Park. If it were directly connected to the station, it would be even more astonishing.

Currently open to the public are "Rothart Square Umekita," a covered event space designed by the architect unit SANAA, "Garden Space," where visitors can enjoy seasonal flowers and grasses, "Hirami no Michi," an aerial corridor overlooking the lush landscape and skyscrapers, and a museum designed and supervised by architect Tadao Ando, " VS.", a museum designed and supervised by architect Tadao Ando, is open to the public, and "Umekita Forest" with a dynamic water view is scheduled to open in 2027.
