Tennōji Park, Urban park and botanical garden in Tennoji, Osaka, Japan.
The 26-hectare grounds contain multiple zones with green spaces, gardens, walking paths, and recreational areas beneath the Abeno Harukas building.
Established in 1909 on a former exhibition site, the park became the third location in Japan to house a municipal zoo after Tokyo and Kyoto.
The grounds include the Osaka City Museum of Fine Arts and Keitakuen Garden, which preserves traditional Japanese landscaping techniques and design principles.
The park connects directly to Tennoji Station through multiple exits and remains open from 7:00 AM until 10:00 PM, with parking available for 500 vehicles.
The municipal zoo features a greenhouse complex where visitors observe tropical plants while Tsutenkaku Tower stands visible from the western section.

Osaka is Japan of contrasts. A city where 6th-century temples stand beside futuristic skyscrapers, where fish markets meet giant Dotonbori signs, and where the nights turn streets into a continuous show. More lively and spontaneous than Tokyo, Osaka maintains its accent, humor, and warmth. People come here to eat, stroll, and listen to the hum of a metropolis that never truly sleeps. Between medieval castles, Shinto shrines, avant-garde museums, and multi-level hot spring baths, the city presents both ancient and ultra-modern faces. Exploring Namba, Shinsekai, or Umeda reveals a unique energy, vibrant urban culture, and an attention to detail that makes Japan unforgettable.
