Yoyogi Park

  Yoyogi Park sits adjacent to the bustling Harajuku district in Tokyo and is a prime green space for relaxation and recreation. Established in 1967 on the site of the former 1964 Tokyo Olympics, the park spans about 54.5 hectares and features expansive lawns, walking paths, and tranquil woodlands. A key highlight is the Yoyogi Park Annex, often bustling with various events, particularly in spring when cherry blossoms bloom, attracting both locals and visitors. Nature enthusiasts can enjoy spotting over 1,000 trees, including cherry, ginkgo, and pine, while families often gather for picnics or weekend sports activities. The park's proximity to the iconic Meiji Shrine adds to its appeal, making it a perfect spot to explore both nature and culture in central Tokyo.
