Eco Museum of Osaka, Environmental education center in Tsurumi-ku, Japan
The Eco Museum of Osaka sits within the 123-hectare Tsurumi Ryokuchi Park and displays exhibits about environmental protection and sustainable living practices. The space features different zones that teach visitors about resource conservation and ecosystem care.
The museum emerged on the grounds of the 1990 International Garden and Greenery Exposition, which attracted a large audience interested in horticulture and plants. The original event left behind a legacy of environmental learning at this location.
The museum builds environmental awareness through exhibitions and programs rooted in Japanese perspectives on nature protection and conservation. These activities connect visitors with local approaches to living sustainably with the natural world.
The museum is easily reached by subway from Tsurumi-ryokuchi Station, and the surrounding park has free access. A visit works well when you have time to explore both the indoor exhibits and the park grounds at your own pace.
The International Garden within the park contains soil samples from 55 different regions across the world, revealing how varied Earth's natural zones are. This collecting area offers an unexpected window into global ecosystems in a compact space.
