[Osaka] Summer event at Umekita Park is here

Umekita Park (Grand Green Osaka) VS. The "Green Apple" object in front of VS. is a spot you can see only for a limited time.

This large object, about 2.5 meters in diameter, was installed as a symbol for the architect Tadao Ando's exhibition "Tadao Ando Exhibition | YOUTH." It is located on the lawn in front of the venue and serves as a photo spot☀️

The motif represents Ando's concept of "youth = the attitude of continuing to challenge." On the pedestal, there is a poem "Youth" by poet Samuel Ullman and a message from Ando. It is said to express the idea of "like an unripe 'green apple,' I want to keep challenging forever."

The end date is undecided, and it is ongoing for a while.

Also, a Pokémon event is being held nearby, and I found Pokémon "Mareep"💚
