Leisurely stroll begins on vast lawns and walking trails through mixed forest
About this spot
A vast urban park that Fuchu City takes pride in, featuring multiple zones including spacious lawns, an outdoor stage, and walking trails through mixed forest. The adjacent Fuchu City Art Museum has an impressive glass exterior that harmonizes beautifully with the park's greenery. Even under intense summer sun, there are many shaded areas, and the wide lawn where children can run freely is the perfect spot for a midday break. While conserving energy for tonight's fireworks, enjoy the ample space. The walking trails through the mixed forest retain a strong atmosphere of Musashino, with greenery that is surprising for its location in Tokyo.
