Kiyosumi Park

Unclaimed

This was one of the prettiest parks I visited in a recent trip to Japan. Despite being in Tokyo, it was very peaceful when I visited. It has a lovely pond, which has a whole host of wildlife including ducks, tortoises and big fish. It was great to see all the animals, as I walked on the stepping stones. There were also blossoming trees (I came in March.) Highly recommend for some tranquility in Tokyo.

Very beautiful and relaxing. Lots of turtles in the water body. The park contains enough twists and turns to be exciting but not so many that would make you feel like you may miss out on something.

Beautiful Classical Japanese garden. What makes the special is the size of the lake. Unfortunately, when I went, part of the lake was damned up for reconstruction and the height of the water elsewhere was a little low so it took a little bit of the magic away, but regardless it was a great place.

Lovely little park with no crowds even on weekends. So pretty during autumn season.

The Kiyosumi Park, next to the Kiyosumi Garden, is a calm place to walk, enjoy the trees and do some birdwatching. We visited stayed next to this park and visited it seven times in early morning. The garden opens at 9:00, so it's a nice place to wait too.
