Oasis Hiroba 21

Oasis Hiroba 21 is a modern skyscraper in central Ōita combining commercial spaces on multiple floors with broadcasting facilities and a cultural center. The structure blends everyday shopping and dining with public cultural spaces and community venues.

The building opened in January 1998 and marked a turning point in Ōita's modern urban development. Its construction was part of a broader effort to revitalize the city center during that period.

The Ōita Prefectural Culture Center inside showcases exhibitions and performances featuring local artists and traditional crafts from the region. Visitors can explore works by regional talents and engage with contemporary Japanese artistic expressions.

The building sits about 15 minutes on foot from Ōita Station and is easy to reach by walking. Underground parking is available for cars, motorcycles, and bicycles if you arrive by vehicle.

The NHK Ōita Broadcast Center is based in this building, producing radio and television programs for the entire region from here. This makes the location a hub for regional media production that operates daily.
