What is a World Expo?
   A World Expo is an event that brings together people and innovations from around the world in an effort to address issues facing humankind on a global scale. The Osaka Expo 1970, Japan’s, and Asia’s, first ever, became a symbol of Japan’s rapid economic growth and one of the country’s most lauded events. Twenty years after the Aichi Expo 2005, Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai will bring the international community back to Japan.
A World Exposition is a place, where new technologies and products are born, triggering greater convenience in our daily lives.

   In 2025, the world will be a mere five years away from 2030, the year the United Nations has set as the target for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),

This is such a good way to explore the city with the incentive of getting a cool prize at the end! Any Pokemon fan of any age would love this, and even if you knew nothing of the franchise you can still have so much fun figuring out where the creatures are and the little puzzle at the end. I ended up doing 2 routes and getting gifts for my friends too! I honestly might do another one sometime later in my trip. The Pokemon cut outs were such high quality too, its already been a decent amount of months and they&rsquo;re all vibrant like new. I&rsquo;m glad the event lasts for so long and theres no time limit either.

I came to Osaka Port twice 10 years ago, and I found that it has not changed much after 10 years. I feel like I have traveled back to my teenage years.
The weather was quite comfortable on the day I went there. It was cloudy, there was little sun, and it was windy, but maybe because of this, the scenery was not so beautiful.
I bought a package ticket for the Aquarium KAIYUKAN + Santa Maria, 3700 per person. In fact, I regretted it a little. I should have bought a ticket for the Aquarium KAIYUKAN.
The Santa Maria runs once an hour. We came out of the Aquarium KAIYUKAN at 12:10. We waited for 50 minutes. It felt like a waste of time and we were very tired.
There are many places to visit in Tempozan, which is very suitable for bringing children.
