About this spot

This large shopping mall is close to Kintetsu Yao Station and features a food court and shops, making it convenient for meals before the pool and purchasing forgotten items. Enjoying a leisurely meal in the air-conditioned mall means you won't need to wait in line after entering the pool, allowing you to focus on water play immediately. It's a useful stop if you need to buy sunscreen or additional water-play supplies.

Tips

During summer vacation, the food court can get crowded around midday, so arriving around 11 AM for an early lunch is ideal. Prepare for pool entry by organizing change of clothes and valuables here for a smooth transition.
