What other travelers are saying about Kema Sakuranomiya Park
This charming, spacious park in a quiet, non-touristy part of Osaka is a hidden gem. I loved hearing the gentle sounds of trains passing, crows cawing, and the calming ambiance of nature. It’s perfect for morning jogs and offers a peaceful escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. The neighborhood is equally non-touristy, adding to the park’s serene vibe. I can only imagine how beautiful it must look during Sakura season!
Beautiful with sakuras during spring! 🌸 Was there today on a thursday at 1pm+ and was not crowded. It is almost fully bloomed as you can see from my photos.
It was raining almost all day yesterday till night at an area several kilometres from the park so I didn't go and am glad today it still looked lovely! 🌸
There is also a river view and there were food stands. There is also a convenience store right by the station.
The toilets are near the entrance if you're coming from the nearest station.
You can bring a picnic mat/portable chair if you'd like to sit there for a long time! :)
Went there again at 7pm+ to see what its like at night, several night stands were still open with people around.
God's creation is so beautiful🩷

Came here today(4/4/24). Cherry blossom in full bloom. Beautiful cherry blossom along the Okawa river . Not crowded with tourists. Easily catch nice shots of pictures. Bring your picnic mat to have a picnic and relax here.
I visited the place during Tenjin Matsuri, the place is beside Okawa river and line with cherry blossom trees although it wasn’t season at that time but must be good to visit during its season. It was teeming with streetfood and beers along the path. I will revisit during the day and less crowd.
Spring is here! The sakura tree blooms around 95%. There are people on picnic mats doing hanami (flower watching). The river, boats and bridges really elevate the experience surrounded by beautiful blooms. I believe April 6 onwards would be the best viewing dates but starting last April 5, 2024 you could definitely enjoy hanami here. Depending on the weather if it continues to be sunny and not windy this could last a week until the blooms start to fall.
