Osaka, the Water City
HISTORY

The "Water Corridor" is a rare geographical feature in the world

The Osaka Water City revitalization initiative was designated as an urban regeneration project by the Cabinet Secretariat's Urban Regeneration Headquarters in 2001. This served as a catalyst for Osaka to implement various initiatives to revitalize its waterfronts into vibrant and lively spaces, aiming to recapture the lively landscape of life close to the rivers that characterized Osaka as a "water city," a memory that was fading into the past.

Centered around the "water corridor," a rare geographical feature in the world where a river winds through the city center in a square shape, we are advancing various projects, including the development of symbolic waterfront spaces and boat landings.
