Courtyard BackNext
The courtyard in the 1st basement, together with the skylight roof, is designed to re-create the image of forests on Keihanna Hill. The area of the courtyards on the east and west sides totals approximately 3,300 square meters, where more than 100 trees such as Japanese oaks are planted.

Visitors walk along the passage between the east and west courtyards toward the reading rooms.
