Umekita Park

I went to the just opened Umekita Park in Osaka, a large green space adjacent to Osaka Station in the center of the Kita section of Osaka. The still incomplete Grand Green Osaka project, with the park as its focal point, is built on a former train yard.

There are a number of green spaces in the park, including a garden, a small forest with a creek running through it (still under construction), and a large grassy area in front of a shell, designed as a stage for entertainment events. There is also a shallow wading pool and many kids were taking advantage of it today.

Tying it all together is a curving wooden pedestrian bridge.
