Unusual Green Architecture In Japan: Namba Parks

In a city with few green spaces, Namba Parks is a welcome
swath of green for the inhabitants of Osaka. Check out this
full size photo of this amazing piece of architecture. The
complex stands where Osaka’s baseball stadium used to
be until 2003, and consists of a 30-floor skyscraper,
Parks Tower, and a shopping mall with eight floors of
terraced gardens. The sloping park connects to the street,
welcoming passers-by to enjoy its groves of trees, clusters
of rocks, cliffs, lawn, streams, waterfalls, ponds and outdoor terraces.
