Have you ever heard of Sakai City in Osaka? 1. I discovered this hidden gem in Osaka. Its name is just one character: Sakai City. It's only a 10-minute train ride from Osaka. However, there's little information about it online. Compared to the crowded streets of Osaka, Sakai's streets are spacious. Strolling around, I discovered some unexpected surprises! 2. Daisen Park: This central park in Sakai City is located next to the Emperor's Mausoleum. It has beautiful Japanese gardens, perfect for taking photos. It's also a great spot for cherry blossom viewing in spring. It's a less-crowded, scenic spot. Daisen Park was built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Sakai City. Similar to Kyoto's Heian Shrine, which was built to commemorate the 1100th anniversary of the capital's move from Nara to Kyoto. Across from the park is the Emperor Nintoku's Mausoleum, one of the three largest tombs in the world. This mausoleum is as famous as the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor and the Great Pyramid of Giza. You can't enter the mausoleum, only view it from the outside. The mausoleum is surrounded by trees, so you can't see much. Plus, it has a perimeter of over 3 km, so walking around it can be tiring. Emperor Nintoku's Mausoleum is one of the largest ancient tombs in Japan and the world, and its grandeur is breathtaking. Daisen Park was selected as one of the "100 Best Historical Parks in Japan," and its characteristic is the beautiful natural landscape within the park. 3.

Daisen Park in Sakai City, Japan: A Hidden Gem Let me tell you about a fantastic hidden gem in Japan—Sakai City's Daisen Park! Located in Daisencho, Sakai Ward, Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, Daisen Park is a place rich in history and charm. It's also quite easy to get to from Osaka. Just take the Kintetsu Line to Sakai Station, and then transfer to a bus or walk a short distance. As soon as I entered Daisen Park, I was captivated by its beauty. The park was once the site of the residence of Ryusa Konishi, a wealthy merchant in Sakai City during Japan's Warring States period, so the entire park exudes an air of ancient elegance. The most striking feature of the park is the huge artificial lake. The water is crystal clear, shimmering in the sunlight, and you can see many lovely koi swimming around. The lake is surrounded by a variety of plants. In spring, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and the pink petals fall onto the lake's surface, creating a picturesque scene. Strolling along the lakeside, taking in the surrounding scenery, is truly relaxing. In addition to the artificial lake, there is also a beautiful garden within the park. The garden's architecture is very traditional, with quaint tea houses and pavilions. Walking through the garden feels like traveling back in time to ancient Japan. The garden's layout is also exquisite, with rockeries, flowing water, and greenery complementing each other, creating a poetic atmosphere. Daisen Park also has a special historical and cultural exhibition area. Here, you can learn about the history of Sakai City and the life of Ryusa Konishi. The exhibition area contains many precious artifacts and materials, which gave me a deeper understanding of Japanese history and culture. Oh, and there's a small zoo in the park too! It houses a variety of adorable animals, such as rabbits, monkeys, and peacocks. Children can get up close and personal with the animals, which is a lot of fun. I saw many children excitedly feeding the animals, creating a heartwarming scene. At night, Daisen Park takes on a different look. The park's lights illuminate the entire area, making it even more beautiful. The artificial lake, in particular, looks even more enchanting under the lights.

The water is calm and clear, and the surrounding paths are very quiet, making it particularly pleasant to walk around. There are also many people flying kites and having picnics on the lawn. Seeing everyone's smiles makes me feel very relaxed. 📸 Beautiful Scenery Everywhere This place is really great for taking photos! The reflections by the pond and the sunlight on the grass make for beautiful shots. If you like nature-themed photos, Daisen Park is definitely worth a visit. 🎟️ Tips It's free here! It's perfect for budget travelers. I recommend bringing some light snacks and drinks, finding a spot you like, and enjoying a peaceful time while eating. It's also convenient to walk here from Sakai-Higashi Station or Daisen Station, so transportation is not a hassle.

#cherryblossom2024 😘🌸 While savouring our delightful holiday, I embarked on an exhilarating adventure to the bustling metropolis of Japan. The arrival of spring had infused the surroundings with a magical aura, and we felt invigorated as we wandered through the renowned Daisen Park. Immersed in the opulent landscapes of this enchanting sanctuary, we were spellbound by the awe-inspiring vistas that unfolded before our eyes at every twist and turn. Adjacent to the majestic Mausoleum of Emperor Nintoku, a revered Unesco World Heritage Site in Osaka lies the exquisite Daisen Park. This opulent sanctuary offers an enchanting haven to revel in the beauty of spring's most cherished blossom. With approximately 400 sakura trees gracefully adorning the picturesque Dora Pond, this park is a haven for families seeking respite amidst nature's embrace. The expansive open grass lawn provides ample space for children to frolic and play, ensuring a delightful experience for all. Although Daisen Park may require a slight sojourn from central Osaka, fear not, for the journey shall be completed in less than an hour. A modest fee of ¥200 is levied upon entry, a small price to pay for those yearning to escape the bustling throngs of the city. The luxurious and captivating refuge has made a lasting impact in the deepest parts of my consciousness. The pure joy of revisiting and treasuring every moment in this unmatched sanctuary is truly unmatched. 😘🌸💮🤗 #mytravelhacks #historicallandmarks #localguides #trip

#Sakura2024 The pink cherry blossoms in Daisen Park are in full bloom as the sun sets, with countless petals fluttering and falling, creating a beautiful sight. The park was bustling with people and filled with a joyful atmosphere. I found an open space and sat down, sharing the beauty of the cherry blossoms with the people around me, while observing the different expressions of the people who were viewing the flowers. Whenever I see this scene in the future, I will be filled with emotion and deeply miss the spirit of appreciating flowers.

#thingstodo Beautiful park with a lovely Japanese garden in it. It has a pond with some pretty bridges. The constructions there (a veranda, a gazeebo...) have a Japanese traditional style. It's really recommended to go there on a sunny day, in the afternoon, and take some time to wander around. Good spot to take beautiful photos. A must-visit in Osaka in fall season.
