Daisen Park in Sakai City, Osaka is a comprehensive urban park that was developed as a historical and cultural landmark in postwar reconstruction plans. Located between the tombs of Emperor Nintoku and Emperor Liqiu, one of the world's largest tombs, it is part of the Mozu Tombs, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Went there on rainy day (Mar 28), it was still beautiful, relaxing. The park itself was not too large to walk on foot. We were there when sakura trees, well, most of them, were still in early stage with thousands of buds were waiting to fully bloom. Coffee shops and toilettes were available.
Very nice park with a beautiful Japanese garden, you need to pay a small fee to enter the Japanese garden area but it’s well worth it
The only downside to the park is you can’t BBQ except for a tiny little area where everything is included for a a fixed price, a shame when there is plenty of space to have BYO BBQ areas like other parks do
One of the most beautiful parks that I have visited in Osaka. Daisen Park is vast and has plenty of spots worth taking photos of. I love the Japanese Garden and the pond area. Given the chance, I would bring my parents here in the future.
Daisen Park is located in Sakai, Osaka Prefecture, Japan.
Daisen Park features beautiful Japanese gardens, open spaces for picnics, and cultural facilities such as the Sakai City Museum.
