All Reviews of Maruyama Park (Kyoto)

There are lots of historical sites and cultural spots inside Maruyama Park, like Chion-in Temple and Yasaka Shrine. It's a great place to really get a sense of Kyoto's history and culture.

Whether it's cherry blossom season or autumn leaves, Maruyama Park is a paradise for photography lovers.

The cherry blossom season here is lively and beautiful. Sitting under the trees and enjoying the flowers is so relaxing.

Since it's not cherry blossom season yet, there aren't many people here. It's just a simple park.

The most popular thing at Maruyama Park is the weeping cherry trees. During cherry blossom season, the park gets super crowded with people coming to see them.

Walked from Kiyomizu-dera, through Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka, and finally reached Maruyama Park to see the cherry blossoms at night. The place was lively and crowded, making for an unforgettable experience.

In broad daylight, you can see lots of blue tarps spread out under the cherry trees. After work in the evening, crowds gather here to enjoy the cherry blossoms at night.

I visited Kyoto with a tour group, and the agency arranged for us to have sumo hot pot at a restaurant inside Maruyama Park. The delicious taste still lingers in my memory!
