About this spot

Jabujabu Pond in Nishiyama Park (西山公園) is a free water play area inside a lush, green park in Nagaokakyo City, Kyoto Prefecture. In 2026 it operates from Sunday, April 26 to Sunday, September 6, entirely by reservation, with four time slots set between 9:30 a.m. and 5:10 p.m. (closed Mondays and Fridays). The shallow, well-maintained water is built so that even small children can play safely, and since it is surrounded by trees there is plenty of shade, making it a comfortable environment even on hot summer days. For families who want to spend a relaxed day close to home, it is a valuable water play spot you can drop by easily.

Tips

Since reservations are required, check availability for your preferred time slot on the official website before your visit and complete your booking in advance. Note that it is closed on Mondays and Fridays. Bring your own towels and arrange your own changing spot, and on days with strong sunshine it is best to make use of the shade for breaks.
