It would be a shame to spend an evening in Osaka just shopping and dining. Near Umeda lies a world-class park. North Park, which won't be completed until 2027, and South Park's Reflection Plaza, which officially opened last September, have become Osaka's exclusive destination for enjoying the night view and dating. It's also the world's largest park connected to a station.
Umeda's skyscrapers light up at night, and Reflection Plaza offers fantastic photos of the nightscape's reflections. The arc-shaped Rotonda Center Square is also a venue for concerts. Umeda Park, part of the second phase of Osaka's Umeda redevelopment, covers 45,000 square meters. This prime location, where every inch of land is valuable in Osaka, has created a Tokyo Dome-sized recreational plaza.
On a nice day, you can bring a picnic mat and enjoy a meal on the grass with friends and family. The sunset is breathtaking. Located nearby is the Grand Green Osaka shopping center, and JR stations like LUCUA, Daimaru, and Hankyu Sanbangai are all within easy reach. Whether you're enjoying a meal or shopping, enjoying the night view, or simply grabbing some treats for a picnic, it's a great spot.
Also worth looking forward to are Tadao Ando's hands-on museum and Asia's first Time Out Market, both of which will officially debut with the opening of North Park in 2027. Umeda is constantly evolving, showcasing new facets.
