We installed playground equipment and kitchen cars for children in Odori Park for two weeks!

Demonstration experiment using Odori Park

Last Updated February 28, 2020

Purpose

　Until now, we have verified how to use Odori Park once every six months (March and November), but we aim to make the park more accessible on a daily basis. As an initiative, for about a week in January, we installed playground equipment to create a playground for children and a kitchen car as a watch function, confirming the effects of environmental changes in the park and continuing holding.
　This time, in the February experiment, for two weeks (7 days in total on weekdays and holidays), playground equipment to create a playground for children and a kitchen car as a watch function will be installed again to create an environment that will enhance the appeal of the park. Demonstration experiment was conducted.
