【Expo 2025】No Reservations Needed to Have a Great Time!

I visited the Osaka Kansai Expo 🐙 Despite the scorching heat, the venue was packed with visitors! Although I couldn't secure any advance or same-day reservations, I entered with some concerns about whether I could enjoy the event. To my surprise, I managed to visit plenty of pavilions and had an incredibly fulfilling day! The architecture is stunning, so even if you can't enter the pavilions, architecture enthusiasts and photography lovers will still find it enjoyable. ⚠️ Tips for Future Visitors: ・Pavilion queues can be deceiving—some long lines move quickly, while shorter ones might take longer. It's best to ask the staff on-site about wait times ☝️✨ ・Standing for extended periods can be tiring, so bringing a foldable chair is highly recommended 🪑 ・Summer is extremely hot! Since you'll spend a lot of time outdoors, make sure to prepare for heatstroke 💦 Bring frozen water bottles, salt candies, and more than you think you'll need ☀️ ・The venue is enormous! Wear comfortable sneakers 👟 (I wore sandals and ended up with blisters everywhere 🤣)
