[2025 Awaji Attraction] Travel Guide for Awaji Yumebutai (Updated Jun)

Awaji Island is 30 minutes away from Kobe. Awaji Yumebutai has also started a limited-time illumination event✨The illuminations are exceptionally beautiful amidst Tadao Ando's architecture. I'll introduce three recommended points here☝️━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✅Reason 1: The view from the hotel is a spectacular sight of 🏛Tadao Ando's architecture⭐️starry sky🌊sea✨illumination! The first photo was taken from the hotel room📷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✅Reason 2: The greenhouse illuminations are also being held for a limited time✨This is also of course an Ando Tadao architecture. The botanical garden is also filled with a Christmas atmosphere and has many photo spots📷✨🎄━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✅Reason 3: Unlike the illuminations in the city, you won't be surrounded by crowds at all...✨You can take a walk, of course, but if you stay at the Grand Nikko Awaji, you can also enjoy the view from your room✨━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚠️Notes☑︎Awaji Green Hall is only lit up for a short time after dark except on weekends! It may be a little hard to find because it's still bright outside. ☑︎There were so few people around late at night that it was a little scary😂I recommend visiting Hyakudanen after dark with someone⭐️━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The lighting while surrounded by Tadao Ando's architecture is the best.

After having enough food at Awaji Highway Oasis, we went to the first attraction on Awaji Island - Awaji Island Yumebutai. It takes less than 15 minutes to drive from Highway Oasis. After arriving, we parked the car in the parking lot near Grand Nikko Awaji. Awaji Island Yumebutai is a large-scale work built by Mr. Tadao Ando using bare concrete. It integrates facilities such as an international conference hall, a leisure hotel, an outdoor theater, and a botanical garden. First visit the "Miracle Star Botanical Garden", which is a 2-story glass greenhouse. Greenhouse plants include tropical plants, Japanese garden plants, orchids, etc. My sister just happened to prepare some props for me and gave me a surprised bridal shower. It was perfect to take photos in this place that looked like a Secret Garden 🪴! Leaving the greenhouse, you will arrive at the "Hundred-section Garden", which is composed of 100 flower beds and is laid out regularly along the slope of the hillside, which is quite spectacular. But it was not spring yet when we went there, so we didn’t see any flowers, which made us feel a bit like a grave 😅 The last stop at Yumebutai is the Sea Church⛪️ and souvenir shop located in Grand Nikko Awaji. The church is not big, but it feels very different from other churches. The walls are made of cement. There is a large cross-shaped gap in the ceiling. Light passes through the gap and reflects the cross on the wall. The overall feel is modern. The souvenir shop sells similar items to those sold at Highway Oasis. After strolling around leisurely and staying at Yumebutai for about 3 hours, we headed to the hot spring ♨️ hotel. --------- 📬 Awaji Yumebutai 〒656-2306 2 Yumebutai, Awaji City, Hyogo Prefecture #Awaji Yumebutai #Awaji Island #Miracle Star Botanical Garden #Hyakudanen #Ando Tadao #Bare Concrete Building #Church of the Sea #grandnikkoawaji #Great Places in Japan

#Japan Attractions Awaji Yumebutai: A place that transcends time and space and coexists with nature - "The World of Ando Tadao" Awaji Yumebutai is a comprehensive cultural and leisure facility located on a hillside facing the Pacific Ocean on the east coast of Awaji City, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan. It is the masterpiece of the famous Japanese architect Tadao Ando. It is an observation deck overlooking the Pacific Ocean. From almost any place, you can see the Pacific Ocean and the scenery of Kobe in the distance. This is the venue of the international art and craft expo "Japan Flora 2000" held in 2000, and the Dream Stage opened with it. Dream Stage is actually open 24 hours a day. There is no ticket, so I paid for the underground parking lot. The parking lot seemed empty with few tourists. Of course, this is on normal days. If it is a public holiday in Japan, it might be completely different. The following is an excerpt from the Awaji Yumebutai photo collection «21st Century Yumebutai» by Tadao Ando: Awaji Yumebutai hopes that guests who visit "Awaji Yumebutai" will feel the breath of nature that is not noticed in daily life, such as water, wind, light, shade, sky, mountains and sea. The 21st century is no longer an era where nature can easily create a good environment automatically, but an era where people need to use their own will to actively promote nature and coexist with the environment. I hope that Yumebutai will be a good opportunity to raise people's awareness of the "environment" in which they live, from the natural environment around them, such as trees in the garden, rivers, Mt. Rokko, and Osaka Bay, to long-term changes on the earth's scale, such as natural disasters such as earthquakes. The Dream Stage, which was born in 2000 as a turning point, hopes to transcend another thousand years and become a place that continues to give people courage surrounded by green mountains and clear waters. #Overseas Travel #Japan Travel #Japan Good Places #Japan Travel Guide #Architecture #Ando Tadao #Hyogo Prefecture #Pacific Ocean View #Architectural Art

Awaji Yumebutai was completed in 2000 as a project to regenerate the nature of Awaji Island, led by architect Tadao Ando. The vast grounds are filled with flowers and greenery, and are home to birds and small animals. They include a hotel, restaurant, international conference center, outdoor theater, botanical garden, park, flower beds, and fountains. Awaji Yumebutai was created with the hope that visitors will be able to feel the richness of nature that is often overlooked in everyday life, and to raise environmental awareness.

#Osaka Attractions In the morning, we will drive to Awaji Yumebutai on Awaji Island. This complex designed by Tadao Ando perfectly combines modern architecture with natural landscape. Upon arrival, what comes into view is the layered architectural structures that blend seamlessly with the surrounding mountains and waters. Walking into Baiduan Garden, you will see 1,500 kinds of flowers blooming in the terraced gardens, like a vivid painting. I strolled through it, admiring the contrast between flowers and buildings, as if I were in a dream. In the afternoon, enjoy the exhibition themed "Nature and Regeneration" at the conference center and experience the profound dialogue between architecture and ecology. The next day, I chose to explore the natural landscape around Yumetai. In the morning, walk along the gently sloping trail and admire the elegance of the Japanese garden and the tranquil beauty reflected in the lake. At the Awaji Yumebutai Botanical Gardens, it feels like entering a green maze, and every scene is full of poetry. In the afternoon, we went to Akashi Kaikyo Park on the neighboring Awaji Island to continue our natural journey in Yumebutai, where we lay on the lawn and felt the comfort of the breeze. During these two days, I wandered in the resonance between architecture and nature, and my heart was filled with emotion and tranquility.

It is a scenic spot that combines natural beauty with cultural activities🌤️ 💐Hyakudan Garden is famous for its exquisite Japanese garden and hundred steps. Visitors can enjoy the changing flowers and landscapes of the four seasons and feel the charm of traditional Japanese gardening. 🌿It’s a pity that life has not bloomed yet and it looks rather barren.

Due to its remote location, there are fewer people and it is very quiet. These two places not only provide a rich cultural experience, but also allow visitors to immerse themselves in the natural scenery of Awaji Island, making them ideal choices for travel. 👍🏻👍🏻

📍Hyakudanen and Awaji Yumebutai This is the famous Tadao Ando building! "Awaji Yumebutai" is a complex located in the northern part of Awaji Island, designed by architect Tadao Ando. In addition to "Hyakudanen" shown at the beginning of the photo, it is composed of Grand Nikko Awaji, an international conference center, a shopping and restaurant floor, a botanical garden "Kiseki no Hoshi Botanical Garden", and the national Akashi Kaikyo Park is adjacent to it. The site where it was built was originally a sand quarry for use in landfill for the construction of Kansai International Airport and other facilities, where the mountains of Awaji were cut down. Tadao Ando was in charge of the design from the beginning, and the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake occurred just as construction was about to begin. The concept was changed after an active fault was found on the premises (sketches of the change process were on display in the Yumebutai corridor), and it opened in 2000. Hyakudanen is a garden with 100 flower beds arranged in a stepped pattern along the slope of a mountain. It was designed by Tadao Ando as a "garden of prayer" for the victims of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake. Each block has its own concept: "Garden of Prayer to the Sea," "Harvest Garden," and "Awaji Meadow Garden." From the high ground where Hyakudanen is located, you can look down on Osaka Bay, and the view is spectacular. In addition to that, there are areas such as the "Sky Garden" and "Water Garden" through the "Sea Corridor" and "Mountain Corridor," and the concept is that all of these are likened to strolling gardens. #0yentravelJanuary2025

This garden was created as a 'Garden of Prayer' for the victims of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake. Each block is planted with green plants and flowers, including sunflowers. The view of the sea from the hilltop was spectacular, but I was particularly moved by the beauty of the green mountains and Hyakudan-en Garden against the summer sky. It is also a popular photo spot. Highly recommended for Awaji Island sightseeing. Awaji Yumebutai A complex facility consisting of Grand Nikko Awaji, an international conference hall, restaurants, a botanical garden, Hyakudan-en Garden, and more. Designed by architect Tadao Ando, it is a popular tourist spot. Next to it is the Awaji Island National Akashi Kaikyo Park. ✱----------------------------------------------- Name: Hyakudan-en Garden Location: Awaji Yumebutai Address: 2 Yumebutai, Awaji City, Hyogo Prefecture Access: About 5 minutes by car from Awaji IC Elevator: 07:00 - 18:00 Fee: Free Parking: Available (paid) Visit Date: August 2024 -----------------------------------------------✱

#ModernArchitecture Awaji Island Tadao Ando Dream Stage Architecture Guide 🏛🌊 Stepping into the picturesque land of Awaji Island, it feels like traveling to a dream stage, and all of this is due to the ingenuity of Tadao Ando. Let us explore this dreamlike space where architecture and nature coexist harmoniously with a fun attitude! 🚶♂🌿 1. First sight of Yumebutai, a stunning start🌅 Starting from Shin-Kobe Station or Sannomiya, take a convenient bus, with picturesque scenery along the way, until you get off leisurely in front of Awaji Yumebutai. At first glance, the V-shaped plain concrete wall of the Westin Hotel reveals an extraordinary temperament in its simplicity, as if it is a gentle hug to welcome every traveler. 🏨💪 Second, walk through the maze and experience the integration of nature and architecture🏰🌳 When you step into the dream stage, you will be immediately attracted by its intricate structure, as if you have stepped into a huge maze. The Mountain Corridor and the Sea Corridor complement each other. The Sea Corridor faces the vast blue Osaka Bay and has excellent lighting; while the Mountain Corridor cleverly blocks the view and uses glass to create a time tunnel of light and shadow, making people feel as if they are in another world. 🌉🌌 3. Explore the Church of the Sea and feel the holy light of religion🕍✨ It must be mentioned that the Church of the Sea is hidden on the second floor of the Westin Hotel. Tadao Ando used the classic design of the "Church of Light", with a hollowed-out cross on bare concrete, allowing natural light to filter in from the sky, creating an extremely sacred atmosphere. The double crosses and the blue floor complement each other, making you feel as if you are in the sea, gazing at the splendor of the cross. 💒🌊
