Why You Should Visit

Over two days, Namba Hiroba in front of Nankai Namba Station turns into a hands-on introduction to forestry, themed around living with wood. You can make Christmas items and other pieces at a woodcraft workshop, throw darts at a tree-ring target, try trimming branches, fell a tree in VR, and scoop as many hinoki cypress chips into a bag as you can. On stage, working forest workers and competitors from the JLC chainsaw skills competition give a talk show. Entry and all activities are free, and the programme is aimed at everyone from children to adults, so it is easy to drop in while shopping in Namba.
