At Nishinokawa Kita Plaza (Tamakawa 4-chome, Takatsuki City), approximately 2,500 tulips in five vivid colors — red, yellow, pink, white, and orange — have begun to bloom, signaling the arrival of spring.
The tulips that brighten the plaza were planted and have been carefully tended by members of the Nishimen Residential Association and its executive organization. The flowers return to bloom beautifully every year at this time. The area surrounding the plaza is equipped with a promenade stretching approximately 3,000 meters along with benches, making it a beloved spot where residents can stroll and enjoy the colorful blooms. As of April 2, roughly 60% of the tulips had opened, and they are expected to be enjoyed through mid-April.
