Architecture by Tadao Ando, one of the world's most acclaimed architects
Tadao Ando's architecture has received various awards, which shows how highly acclaimed he is around the world. It has a very simple design and is characterized by its innovative architecture of exposed concrete. We emphasize design that takes into account the natural environment by utilizing the effects of materials and natural light.
Tour the architecture of Awaji Yumebutai and enjoy the spectacular view of Osaka Bay!
Awaji Yumebutai was originally a place carved out of a mountain to collect the earth and sand needed during the construction of Kansai International Airport. Tadao Ando designed the site as an environmental creation project to regenerate it into a space in harmony with the lush nature. Based on the concept of ``creating a space where people can coexist,'' a complex facility including an international conference hall and a hotel was born.
Hyakudanen
The garden is made up of 100 flowerbeds arranged in a tiered manner along the mountain slope, and each 4.5m square flowerbed is planted with plants mainly from the Asteraceae family. On a clear day, you can see Osaka Bay from the hill where Hyakudanen is located, and the view is spectacular. Enjoy the spectacular view.
Church of the Sea (Chabel)
"Church of the Sea" is located on the second floor of Grand Nikko Awaji. Light streams in from the exposed concrete ceiling, creating a solemn atmosphere depicting a cross. Unless a wedding is being held, it is open until the evening and you are free to visit.
courtyard
``Courtyard'' is a work created using 65,000 Awaji tiles, with the aim of restoring the tile industry after the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, and is designed to bounce sound off the center of a circle. On rainy days, the sight of the drops falling straight down the tiles is a fantastic sight.
tea room
The tea room attached to the Awaji Yumebutai International Conference Center is the smallest building in the entire vast Yumebutai complex, and the tea room zone consists of the main building with a square roof, a booth with a circular roof, a waiting area, and It consists of a corridor paved with circular and straight Awaji tiles that connect the two. By carefully examining the exterior, spatial structure, materials, etc., you can have a special experience that brings you closer to Japan's tea ceremony culture. (Pre-registration is required to tour the tea room, and a tour fee will be charged)
