BESTIt was great to go with a baby. It seemed like there were a lot of fun things to do for adults, but the downside is that it closes early.
Japan's first theme park,
Hirakata Park
Hirakata Park is Japan's first theme park and has the longest history! This theme park is loved by family travelers because it is easily accessible, just a 3-minute walk from Hirakata Koen Station.
You can ride thrilling attractions including the Ferris wheel during the day, and see the sparkling park at night. There are a variety of things to see, so even those who do not use the attractions can have fun.
osaka theme park,
Do you only know USJ?
‘Universal Studios Japan’ is the most visited and well-known place among those traveling to Osaka. However, there are many more theme parks in Osaka. Among them, I would like to introduce you to Hirakata Park.
Hirakata Park is a family-friendly theme park with over 40 attractions. By taking advantage of the undulating terrain, you can enjoy a variety of thrilling attractions. Hirakata Park is located 50 minutes away from Dotonbori, downtown Osaka. The 'Skywalker', a gorgeous large Ferris wheel with a top of about 80 meters, is the symbol of this place.
Satisfying from children to adults!
Hirakata Park's strength is that it has about 40 types of attractions that visitors of all ages and preferences can enjoy. We have a variety of attractions that even people who are afraid of rides and young children can ride, even on rainy days. Experience various attractions here and enjoy your favorite attractions to your heart’s content!
It's fun even without riding the rides
For those who want to enjoy the atmosphere of the theme park without using the attractions, we will introduce you to what activities you can do here. This is ‘Rose Garden’. It is a place where roses of various colors and types are blooming.
Royal Rose Garden, which collects roses related to royal families from various countries, including the British Royal Family; Fragrance Area, where you can appreciate the scent of roses; Celebrity Name Area , where roses are named after many famous people, including historical figures and actors; Hira You can enjoy a total of four areas, including the area filled with the original roses born at Kata Park . Depending on the season, you may even be able to see cherry blossoms!
Healing with cute animals
In the season when there are no flowers, I recommend seeing the animals. There are two animal areas in total. First, in Wonder Garden, you can see red pandas, small-clawed otters, groundhogs, squirrel monkeys, prairie dogs, and red-tailed bears. It is popular because it is home to a collection of unique animals.
Next is the indoor Waku Waku Animal Village. You can see capybaras, meerkats, turtles, rabbit parakeets, dogs, and maras. Here, you can see animals up close and even give them snacks.
