Nakameguro Park (中目黒公園)

Flow of the course

About this spot

This city-run park near the Meguro River (目黒川) has flower beds and a community farming area. Plots planted with seasonal flowers and rows of fruit trees give it a stronger sense of soil and greenery than most parks in central Tokyo (東京). The Flower and Greenery Learning Center inside the park holds exhibits and classes about plants, and makes an easy indoor stop to cool down. The balance of lawn and trees is good, and the size is just right for spreading a sheet in the shade and eating your lunch. Nakacho Seseragi Green Park is within walking distance.

Tips

Picking up lunch boxes around Nakameguro Station (中目黒駅) before you head over makes things smooth. Rubbish must be taken home as a rule, so bring a bag. The Flower and Greenery Learning Center has set opening hours, so check the official information if you plan to stop in. Avoid entering the water right after eating; resting for 20 to 30 minutes before changing is safer.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour 10 minutes. Choose a shady spot and even a midsummer midday meal stays comfortable
