This a great park, even in winter for a wander. The fountain is shut for the season but there are still plenty of activities going on - people playing tennis and the world game / soccer. Lovely Maple at the west end.

Nice green space in the middle of busy Hommachi. There are several areas to enjoy, such as a kid's play area, a huge rose garden, and a soccer field with surrounding cherry blossoms. Very well frequented by Osaka urbanites looking for a place to chill out. The creek-like fountain is full of kids cooling off in the summer heat which, while technically prohibited, is allowed... although some families take advantage of this by allowing their kids to use water guns etc. Good place for people watching, lots of wannabe models getting photos taken near the roses (or trying to without backgroud people ruining the shot, which is hilarious). I don't recommend the park bathrooms, as is usual in Japan. Only if you're desperate, otherwise walk to the nearest 7-11 instead. Lots of restaurants nearby, and convenience stores, for quick bites.

During our visit we came across this park by chance and we felt at peace once inside. Trees, greenery, decks. Beautiful and calm small park.

Utsubo-koen is a great place to escape the city for a bit. It has a wonderful rose garden and some shade under the trees which is a popular spot for families and groups of friends to spend time together. There are some nice cafés along the edge of the park.

This is my favorite park for my wife and I to go picnic. When the weather i warm, there is a fountain area for kids and parents to splash around and have fun. Be ADVISED, it's free and the kids will never want to leave! I believe it was the site of a former landing strip during WW2. Popular at cherry blossom viewing time in late March/early April. Easy access by subway. I can't heap praise enough about this wonderful green space.

We paused whilst trekking between destinations. It's just a beautiful local park with nice paths, good spots to sit and a public toilet that saved our lives!

One of the few decent parks in Osaka, there aren't that many. The rose garden is actually spectacular when the roses have blossomed...
Worth going there for a walk if you stay nearby, you can then indulge yourself in one of the many nearby cafés and eateries, most of them are quite good and fairly priced!!

A bit of everything here. Play ground, pond , fountain, biking and walking areas, flowers to look at, bathroom facilities, public transportation and food moments away. Plus large and ancient Shinto shrine about 1-2 blocks away. Old and new in one trip

That's my conference trip. In the morning, a short venture to the Utsubo Park took me into a tale of family love.
A garden complex with a small section devoted to the blessing of dad and mum. The statutes depict an apprehensive dad coaching his daughter to ride a bike. Then comes a mum teaching her boy to tie his shoes - and you'll see how comfortable it feels.

Hi, Mishija123. What would you like to know about this attraction?
Is there any playground for kids in the Utsubo park ? With slides, see-saws etc. If so, does anyone has a photo of the playground for kids at Utsubo park?
Is it good for running?

Running would be fine along the perimeter
