What to Expect at Expo 2025 Osaka! The Ultimate Guide

Getting Around Osaka: The Best Areas to Stay for the Expo

Osaka is broadly divided into two main areas: the north, known for its office districts, and the south, a vibrant hub for youth culture and entertainment. In between, the central area serves as a convenient gateway to both.

The Chuo (Central) Area is especially handy for transportation. The Osaka Metro Chuo Line runs east to west through this area, and with the recent extension for the Osaka-Kansai Expo, the new Yumeshima Station is just an 8-minute walk to the venue!

Where to Stay for Easy Access to the Expo

By Subway: Staying at a hotel in the central area is the most convenient option for reaching the venue via the Chuo Line. (2nd option in the central area)

By Shuttle Bus: If you plan to use a shuttle bus, a hotel in the north area and a hotel in the south area are great choices, as they are close to shuttle bus stops.
