At a Glance
Nakanoshima Park is a public park on Nakanoshima, a sandbar between the Dōjima and Tosabori rivers in Kita Ward, Osaka. It opened in December 1891 as the first park run by the city, and it now covers more than 10 hectares in the middle of an office district.
The park holds a rose garden with about 4,000 plants of 89 varieties, which flower in spring and autumn. The Osaka Central Public Hall of 1918 and the Osaka Prefectural Nakanoshima Library of 1904 are both Important Cultural Properties. The Museum of Oriental Ceramics and the Nakanoshima Children's Book Forest also stand within the grounds. At the pointed eastern tip, called Kensaki, a fountain based on an idea by Tadao Ando marks where the Ōkawa splits into the two rivers.
