Koganei
Park
is
the
perfect
place
for
anyone
who
fancies
flowers,
wide
open
spaces,
a
leisurely
stroll,
or
even
a
bit
of
history.
Its
proximity
to
downtown
Tokyo
makes
it
a
perfect
getaway
from
the
hustle
and
bustle
of
city
life.
I
visited
this
park
today
for
hanami
with
some
good
friends.
It's
about
a
30
to
35-minute
bike
ride
away
from
where
I
live
(Higashikurume),
but
it
is
also
easily
accessible
via
train
or
bus.
Koganei
Park
features
spacious
grassy
areas,
which
serve
as
a
perfect
spot
for
picnic
and
games.
A
children's
playground
complete
with
various
amenities
(swings,
slides,
small
zip-lines,
sledding
hill,
etc.)
are
also
available,
which
are
sure
to
entice
kids
and
kids-at-heart
alike.
And
of
course,
the
famous
sakura
trees
in
full
bloom
elevate
the
place
into
a
captivating
view.
There
are
sakura
trees
in
most
parts
of
the
park,
but
they
are
mostly
concentrated
on
the
left
and
right
sides
facing
the
museum.
Benches,
public
washrooms,
and
a
snack
house
with
vending
machines
are
also
available,
so
you
surely
have
everything
you
will
ever
need
for
fun
and
comfort
if
ever
you
get
to
visit.
The
park
is
a
must-see
in
any
season
of
the
year,
but
it
shouldn't
be
missed
when
the
sakura
are
in
full
bloom
at
the
peak
of
spring!⁸
