EXPOCITY in Suita city, OSAKA

The neighboring prefecture of Osaka has many attractions for leisure and EXPOCITY is a fun and exciting place to visit and you should prepare to entertain yourself for a whole day.

Getting to EXPOCITY is a little time and energy consuming if you go from the center of Kyoto by train and also the location is not so convenient to get to, so I recommend this place if you have a chance to stay in Osaka for at least a couple of days.

Here are some cool things at EXPOCITY⤵

LaLaport Expocity; This gigantic mall has over 300 shops and restaurants. You can find almost any major Japanese store at this mall. There is a big selection of restaurants you can enjoy with at lunch and dinner.

Ferris Wheel; Tallest Ferris Wheel in Japan. They do Halloween events and they also serve Halloween drinks that heat up the eventful occasion. 1000 yen for an adult. 18 mins long. If you are interested in this, this is a URL http://osaka-wheel.com/

Cherry blossom seeing 🌸👍

Walking 👍

Picnic 🥪👍

Kids playground 👍

NIFREL “living museum” with the concept of “evoking your inspiration” 2000yen/adult

This place seems to be a little pricey but you will see what this place’s concept means if you go through the whole area.

It might not feel like enough for people who are from places that have huge zoos and aquariums that you can go to all the time, but still I’m impressed by what they are trying to show us here. There are more pictures below.

This whole EXPOCITY is almost one big entertainment area where you can spend entire day, for example start with shopping and eating and finishing up your day by taking ferris wheel to see the night lights of Suita city. There are more entertainment facilities that I want to try to see!
