At a Glance
Oasis 21 is a complex in Nagoya's Sakae district that combines a park, a bus terminal and shops, and it opened in 2002. Most of it is half underground, between the Aichi Arts Center and Hisaya Ōdori Park, next to Nagoya TV Tower.
Its best-known feature is the Water Spaceship, a large oval glass roof with a thin layer of water flowing over it. The water cools the space below in summer and throws rippling light onto the sunken plaza called Galaxy Square. A path around the water gives views of the Sakae skyline and the TV Tower, and the roof is lit up at night. About 32 shops and an information center surround Galaxy Square, a lawn park lies at ground level, and the bus terminal is on the first floor.
