Namikimotomachi Park (Art Park) Water Play Facility

About this spot

This is the Namikimotomachi Park (Art Park) Water Play Facility in Namikimotomachi Park (並木元町公園), Kawaguchi City. In 2026 it operates from Wednesday, July 1 to Wednesday, September 30, between 10:00 and 16:00. It normally runs almost year-round (with shorter hours in winter) and was in operation as of July 1, 2026. Because it is a fountain-type water feature that sprays up from the ground, no deep pools of water form, which is its great advantage: even small children can play safely. Use is free and accessible restrooms are provided, making it an easy environment for families with children. True to its nickname Art Park, sculptures are placed around the grounds, and being able to look at the works while playing in the water is a way of spending time unique to Kawaguchi.

Tips

The ground gets wet and slippery, so watch your footing when running around. Since it is a fountain type, you can play in any clothes you do not mind getting wet rather than a swimsuit, but always bring a change of clothes and a towel. Shade is limited in some spots, so prepare sun protection and plenty of drinks. Operating status can be checked on the official Kawaguchi City website. After playing in the water, wash your feet thoroughly at the tap.
