    Lovely city park complex
    Our accommodation in Tokyo was a short bus ride to this park . The first time we went , we didn’t realise it was a public holiday. It was really very busy , but once we wandered away from the lake and the zoo it was a lot quieter . It just happened to be a very sunny + warm 24c day , fortunately there is lots of shade and places to get food and drinks . Our next visit , was a quiet weekday . We had already visited the shrine , so this time we opted to go to the museum of art . Very relaxing and pleasant afternoon out

    It is best to avoid congestion. Have fun with good manners!
    『芸術と文化の集合体』と言っても過言ではない程に魅力の詰まった公園。科学・美術・舞台・神社仏閣・路上パフォーマンス等、古今東西問わずありとあらゆる芸術や文化がこの公園に集っている。特に何らかのイベントがなくても散策するだけで充分に楽しめる広さを誇る。公園に植えられている桜並木は春の東京の名所の代名詞で、花見のために国内外から多くの観光客が訪れる。 東京観光において最も有名なスポットの一つであるだけに、桜が満開の時期を始めイベントが開催されている時は多くの観光客が詰めかけ、時に静かな公園の風情が台無しになることがある。また一部の心無い客によりゴミが散乱し、とても汚い時がある。そのゴミの中の食べ物を狙ってカラスなどが集まり、糞を撒き散らすから余計に汚くなる。混雑している時期や時間帯を避け、マナーを守りながら散策すれば、素晴らしい時間を過ごすことが出来る。 It is no exaggeration to say that this park is a "Aggregation of art and culture". Science, art, theatrical performances, shrines and temples, street performances, etc., all kinds of art and culture, both ancient and modern, are gathered in this park. Even if it doesn't have any particular event, the park is large enough to enjoy just strolling around. The cherry blossom trees that line the park are synonymous with Tokyo's springtime attractions, and many tourists from Japan and abroad visit the park to view the blossoms. Since it is one of the most famous spots for sightseeing in Tokyo, many tourists flock to the park when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom and other events are being held, sometimes ruining the quiet atmosphere of the park. Also, the park is sometimes very dirty with garbage scattered around by some uncaring visitors. Crows and other animals gather to eat the food in the garbage and spread their feces around, making it even dirtier. If you avoid the crowded times of the year and stroll around with good manners, you will have a wonderful time.
