Why You Should Visit

Once a year the Kinki Technical Office of Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in Hirakata opens its grounds to show the people and technology behind everyday infrastructure. Around 50 booths across six themes (construction, roads, materials, DX, disaster prevention and rivers) include disaster-response vehicles, construction machines you can sit in, a brick arch bridge to assemble, VR experiences and a construction 3D printer demo. On Saturday the 14th the disaster-response helicopter Kinki-go lands and goes on display. Free, held rain or shine, and a good fit for kids who love big vehicles and hands-on crafts.
