Kids Plaza Osaka (couple trip)
How Couple-Friendly is Kids Plaza Osaka?

Positives:
- Unique Architecture: The Hundertwasser design offers playful routes and vibrant colors ideal for photos.
- Creative Activities: Green-screen recording and digital drawing engage adults as well as kids.

Wish we could have more time here. There are a lot for the kids to explore and learn. Lacking English guides on the experiments but most are self-explanatory. A great place for families with young children. Can easily spend half a day here.

Awesome experience for ages 3-8. My 10 year old kid played awhile and she got bored. My 6 and 8 year olds had lots of fun. It’s like a science center with experiments for kids. We reached 10am, went out for lunch at mos burger around 12.30pm and came back at 1.30pm. Re-entry is free on the same day. Left around 2 plus and went to a nearby park with slides.

Awesome place for kids to enjoy tactile activities and learn about culture and history. Very engaging environment. Well plan and decorated hands on demonstrations. Safe for little hands and very clean. Very affordable and worth the visit.

The staff is friendly, and everything is clean and well-maintained. It’s a p...

This place has so many fun activities that my kid had difficulties plucking herself off when it was time to leave. My kid especially loved the supermarket because she g...
