Time Out says

Spacious, open and conveniently located in central Osaka, Tennoji Park is one of the city’s best-loved green spaces. Tenshiba, located in the part nearest to Tennoji Station, is popular with local families spending time outdoors, with many cafés and restaurants alongside futsal courts and a kids’ play centre. The rest of the park also has lots of beautiful greenery in addition to a Zen garden and an art museum for the adults.

Tennoji Zoo right next to the park is also a decent, budget-friendly activity for those who can’t make it out to NIFREL or the Kaiyukan: just ¥500 per adult (¥200 for elementary and junior high school students) nets you entrance to one of the oldest zoos in Japan, with over 1,000 animals to see. Some highlights include the polar bears, Malayan sun bear, Humboldt penguins, and California sea lions.

What’s on

Tenshiba Oktoberfest + World Wine Festival

Whether you’re a fan of bitter hops or malty sweetness, there’s sure to be a German beer for you at the Tenshiba Oktoberfest. Held at Tenshiba Park over 13 spring days – not October, but arguably as great a season for sud-sipping as any – the festival invites you to enjoy draft beers courtesy of six German breweries, plus classic German festival foods like bratwursts, currywursts and pretzels to match the beers. Not a big sausage person? Worry not: steaks, pizza, platters of seafood and a variety of fried foods will also be served at the event, so you won’t go hungry. And with the World Wine Festival held concurrently at the same venue, even non-beer-drinkers have a reason to visit. Meal tickets and drinks can be purchased with credit cards, transit IC cards and cash. Those looking to lean hard into the lawn vibe will want to know that picnic mats and mini tables will be available for rent (and purchase) on site.
