[2025 Osaka Attraction] Travel Guide for Suminoe Park (Updated Apr)

My second month in Japan. Because I just arrived in Japan, I didn't know where to go to see cherry blossoms. I happened to pass by this park while going to the supermarket, so I took some souvenir photos. The first time I saw cherry blossoms, it felt great 🥳 Suminoe Park is very spacious, so it's great to walk or 🏃‍♀️ jog, or have a picnic with friends. #urbanexplorer #congvien#staycation #summervacation

Located in the southern part of Osaka City, Suminoe Park is a popular spot for locals to relax and exercise. Among its attractions, the "Rose Garden" is the most beloved. While it may not be as famous as Nakanoshima, the garden boasts a wide variety of roses and is meticulously maintained, offering a spectacular view during the blooming seasons in spring and autumn. The Rose Garden features over 200 varieties and more than 2,500 rose bushes, organized into sections based on color and species. Each area is equipped with detailed information boards, making it easy for visitors to learn about the flowers. The pathways are clean and well-maintained, and the garden includes gazebos, benches, and small fountains, making it ideal for strolling, photography, or picnicking. Beyond the Rose Garden, Suminoe Park also offers tennis courts, baseball fields, and open-air event spaces, making it a top choice for local schools and residents to host activities. Conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from Suminoe Park Station on the Nankai Electric Railway or subway, this park is a great option for those seeking a quieter and more serene destination.

Suminoe Park is quite large and features a big pond, the Osaka Gokoku Shrine, a baseball field, tennis courts, a soccer field, a children's playground, a swimming pool, a live stage, and a green plaza for various sports activities. The park is well-greened, giving the feeling of an oasis in the city. The flower and green plaza has lawns and benches, and in the summer, there are many beautiful sunflowers. The Suminoe Boat Racecourse, Gorilla Pavilion, and Sumiyoshi Taisha Shrine are all within walking distance, making it a great tourist spot.
