How to get there

The location is a bit of a trek from central Osaka. First, hop on Takarazuka Main Line from Osaka Station and alight at Ikeda Station. There, change to the Higashinose Line 26 bus and alight at Yono Station. You’ll need to walk about 2.2 kilometers (around 35 minutes) to the garden. The entire journey should take around 2 hours.
