2026 Tokumochi Park Water Play Area: Full-Day Enjoyment Course

Centered on the free water-play spot at Tokumochi Park (徳持公園) in Ota City, the Tokumochi Park Water Play Area (Waterfront Facility) (徳持公園 水遊び場（親水施設）), this is a nearby outing course that takes you walking through the town of Ikegami. In 2026, the season runs from around Monday, April 27 to around Wednesday, September 30, with hours of 10:00-16:00. It's closed for regular cleaning on August 6, August 14, and August 24, and since the closing date isn't officially announced by the ward (late September in past years), check the opening status with Ota City's announcements before you head out. The facility is a waterfront facility with a pond and stream, with water that's filtered and disinfected (not drinkable). Admission is free. In the morning, visit the walkable Ikegami Honmon-ji Temple, touching on the history of Ikegami through its long stone stairway, Main Hall, and five-story pagoda. Next, walk through the hillside garden of Ikegami Baien and take a break in the shade. After lunch, move to Tokumochi Park in the afternoon and play in the water until 16:00, walking through the stream or sitting down in it. This is a quintessentially Ikegami day, with a temple, a garden, and a water-play spot all within walking distance.
