This video guides viewers through the current access route to the Osaka-Kansai Expo 2025 area, focusing specifically on traveling from Sakurajima Station to the Expo’s West Gate by shuttle bus. Filmed about three months after the official opening, the footage provides a firsthand look at how transportation arrangements and crowds have evolved since the initial days of the expo, when the site was notably empty.

Starting at Sakurajima Station (桜島駅), a key hub on the JR Yumesaki Line, the presenter demonstrates the process of boarding the dedicated shuttle bus, which takes visitors directly to the western entrance of the Expo grounds. This route is highly relevant for travelers planning to attend Expo 2025, as Sakurajima Station is one of the major railway access points connected to Universal City and Osaka city center. The video offers insights into shuttle frequency, boarding procedures, and the convenience of this direct transportation solution compared to standard access routes.

On arrival at the Expo’s West Gate, viewers are briefly introduced to the layout and atmosphere of the entrance area. Special attention in the video is given to the Italy Pavilion, one of the international highlights of the expo. While the video touches on pavilion access, the main focus remains the logistical aspect of getting from the city to the Expo, making it especially useful for international tourists and locals planning their visit.

Sakurajima Station is situated in the Konohana Ward of Osaka, adjacent to the prominent Universal Studios Japan. During the Osaka-Kansai Expo 2025, special shuttle services such as the one shown in the video are being operated to streamline visitor flows and ensure efficient entry to the event. The video gives prospective Expo guests a detailed and practical preview of what to expect when taking the shuttle, including tips for a smooth journey—essential information for optimizing any trip to Expo 2025.
