Expoland

Expoland was an amusement park in Suita, Japan, that spread across a large site with several roller coasters and different themed zones. The park offered rides of varying intensity and areas designed for different age groups.

The site was developed as a permanent leisure destination after the World Exposition closed in 1970 and opened in October 1971. It received visitors for over three decades before closing permanently following a serious incident in 2007.

The name comes from the 1970 World Exposition and was part of a larger park that drew families from the region for decades. Groups would often visit together in autumn to spend the day riding attractions and enjoying outdoor recreation.

The site today sits near public transport lines and is easy to reach, though the original amusement park no longer operates. The location now hosts other leisure activities and remains a destination for day trips in the region.

An accident on a roller coaster led to its closure and changed safety regulations for amusement parks across Japan. Today a modern leisure complex stands on the site, continuing the tradition of the area as a gathering place for entertainment.
