A Relaxing Place by the Historic Waterfront

Involved in Yodo River Flood Control Since Ancient Times

In the Meiji era, the starting point of the newly excavated Yodo River was under the guidance of Dutch engineer Johannes de Reijke. Monuments that convey the history of flood control are scattered throughout the park.

Reflecting on the History of Osaka

The park has a monument commemorating the 400th anniversary of Netherlands-Japan exchange, allowing visitors to feel the long history of exchange between Osaka and the Netherlands. There are also various monuments paying tribute to the people who contributed to the development of Osaka.

Luxurious Time Embraced by Nature's Blessings

Open Waterfront Landscape

You can have a panoramic view of the elegant flow of the Yodo River from the park, and the reflection of the sky and greenery on the water surface creates a sense of openness. Being able to see airplanes take off and land up close is also a unique charm of this park.

Spending Time with Wild Birds

Many wild birds gather along the river, and their chirping adds charm to the park. It is a precious place where you can enjoy the sight of wild birds in every season, offering a rare opportunity to connect with nature.
