Visited on a weekday on Mar 10th, the park is huge and have plenty of nice walking path, there was not much crowd at all. Most spring flowers have not bloomed, the plum blossoms were almost done, and there are few cherry blossoms that have bloomed. Bathrooms are easily available all over the park and they are clean.
Visiting the Expo '70 Commemorative Park during the Sakura Expo 2026 is a must! From March 20th to April 8th, the park is transformed into a floral wonderland.
The sight of 5,500 cherry trees in full bloom is impressive, especially with the iconic Tower of the Sun standing majestically in the background. A unique highlight is the Tulip Fest (running through April 8th), where vibrant tulip fields create a stunning contrast with the soft sakura.🌸
It’s the ultimate spring experience in Osaka!
As of 2026 March 10... This is a very huge park that is not crowded at all. Probably because all the flowers are not in full bloom yet. Very peaceful to take a stroll through the entire park. We're fortunate to catch some Plum Blossom, Cherry Blossom, and also Camellia. The Observation Tower offers an elevated view of the Sun Tower and Ferris Wheel. Entrance fee only 260yen... So cheap for many hours of walk with nature.
While traveling on OSAKA JAPAN, I visited this park. Actually I planned it before arriving OSAKA. The reason for visiting this park is that seeing tower of sun. Memory of reading comic book 20th century boy leads me here. That comic book shocked me in my teenagers and I have taken my mind of visiting tower someday. As same as expectation, it is really great and brings me unforgettable memory.
Nice place to bring kids with. Make a couple of rounds, enjoy some sweets, and take pictures. Back home, sleep like a baby. The LalaPort shopping complex is adjacent to it. If your time and money is allowed, it is a very nice place to make your family one whole day of fun. A public car park is nearby and fare is fair. Toilet is available and clean.
