2019.03. A Wisdom-Creating City That Pioneers the Future Outline of the City The Keihanna Science City (officially known as the Kansai Science City) is nestled in the green Keihanna hills stretching over Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara prefectures in western Japan. The city, which has been constructed and maintained under the Kansai Science City Construction Act, is one of Japan’s national projects – much like the Tsukuba Science City in the east of Japan. Twelve cultural and scientific research districts (about 3,600 ha) scatter the 15,000 ha of land that makes up the Keihanna Science City. The city is about 30 km from the center of both Kyoto and Osaka cities, and about 10 km from the center of Nara city. More than 140 research facilities, including universities and cultural facilities with workforces (researchers and other staff) exceeding 9,000 has accomplished remarkable successes in the fields of cultural and scientific research. KYOTO Significance and Philosophy History of City Construction Keihanna Science City of the City’s Construction The construction of the Keihanna Science City was proposed by the“ Kansai Science City Surveillance Conversazione” (Chairman: 1.Creating a base for new developments in culture, science and research Azuma Okuda, former Head of Kyoto University) in 1978.
