Beautiful place. Had a couple of cherry blossom trees. There are some traditional tea houses that we couldn't try but we could try the park view Starbucks which is now giving Sakura themed drinks which were yum. Do try! Overall a very amazing and calming experience in the park

A really nice park! Great for strolling around. It was late winter so the Sakura was starting to show. It was a really great experience. Peaceful, clean, people happily milling about enjoying the day. The park is clean and well maintained, as well as huge and you can easily spend an entire day. Have a picnic, bring food or eat at the restaurant inside which also serves very good food.

I have to visit every time I go to Tokyo. No matter the time of year, there's always something beautiful to see. Despite being in the middle of a monster city, I always feel a strong sense of calm, serenity, and spirituality when I enter the garden. Plus, it's only ¥500 to enter, a super reasonable price for what the garden has to offer.

Here right now, as I've heard the cherry blossom 🌸 may blossom early. We were able to catch a few beautiful trees partially blossomed, which is sufficient for me less crowd. Can't imagine when they are fully blossomed and the crowd at that time. The national Park offers discount for seniors and students. One adult ticket is 500 yen. Plenty of restrooms throughout the park.

This is a lovely park with a full greenhouse and panoramic views of the city. Such a lovely escape from the hustle and bustle. I really enjoyed the greenhouse where the temperatures were tropical even though there was snow on the ground outside. I came out in a perfect time in February where all of the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. This place was easy to navigate and had maps in many different languages. Highly recommend going to the visitor center and learning more about the national parks of Japan
