About this spot

This lush park is set on the banks of the Kajikawa River (加治川), which flows through Seiro. Riverside promenades and open plazas spread through the park, making it a favorite spot to relax in the shade of the trees during summer. Its charm lies in the calm, riverside nature you can enjoy here, a different flavor from the beach or hilltop scenery. Spend the afternoon before the fireworks display on a leisurely stroll.

Tips

It is convenient to travel by car from Sannōmori Historic Site Park. There is plenty of shade along the river, making it suitable for a stroll even during the hot hours. Some areas have a lot of insects, so it is reassuring to bring insect repellent spray.
