Futakotamagawa Park
A haven of nature in the city with popular playgrounds for kids!
Opened in 2013, this park spans approximately 6.3 hectares in the Tamagawa area of Setagaya Ward, Tokyo. Surrounded by the waters of the Tama River and home to the "Setagaya Life Forest" with 1,400 trees planted, it offers a rich natural environment in the heart of the city. It's a beloved spot for local residents, perfect for walks and picnics.
The completely barrier-free park facilitates smooth access for wheelchairs and strollers, and is well-equipped with playgrounds. The toddler-friendly play area, paved with rubber chips for safety, includes water play equipment. The "Green Playground," featuring a large slide, is recommended for energetic kids.
Don't miss the "View Plaza" with views of Mt. Fuji, the "Kishin-en" stroll garden spanning about 1,760 tsubo, and the culturally and educationally enriching "Former Shimizu Family Residence Study Room," a valuable Japanese-style building from the late Meiji period and a registered tangible cultural property of Setagaya Ward.
