Photos of Expo ’70 Commemorative Park

The Expo'70 Commemorative Park was renovated on the site of the 1970 Osaka World Expo. The park is very large and is divided into several main parks, including a classical and quiet Japanese garden, a natural and cultural park with flowers blooming in four seasons and colorful, as well as an ethnology museum and a folk art museum. You can take the forest sightseeing train in the park to traverse it. The most striking building in the park is the Sun Tower in the Natural and Cultural Park. It can also be said that the Sun Tower is the soul of the park concept. The Sun Tower is the landmark building of the World Expo that year. The main body in the shape of a red and white triangular cone has a pair of open white wings, which symbolizes the never-ending development path and tenacious and positive vitality of mankind. The uniquely shaped Sun Tower has 3 totem-like "faces" that symbolize the past, present and future. The "Golden Face" is facing the entrance of the park, shining towards every visitor entering the park, indicating a bright future. Just below the "Golden Face" is the "Sun Face" made of concrete, representing the present, while the black sun behind the tower is a symbol of the world gone by.
