What other travelers are saying about Kokyo Gaien National Garden
A very beautiful park. Incredibly cozy when the cherry blossom season is almost over and there are not many tourists. Peace and quiet in every corner. Unusually many people jogging in the morning. One of the places that you simply must visit in Tokyo for relaxation.
A practical recommendation - avoid the close presence of Chinese tourist groups. In my case, I had to move to a quieter place in the garden to enjoy the peace and harmony.
Overall a nice garden, worth having a walk there.
The front area looking at the emperor’s house is a bit empty but offers a nice contrast between the numerous pines and skyscrapers.
The inside of the garden itself is beautifully maintained, with pretty trees, flowers and even some toads!
I'm so glad I found this peaceful spot. It's truly amazing how much calmer I feel surrounded by nature 🌳. This is the perfect place to just breathe and let go of all the stress. I really needed this mental break to clear my head and focus on what's important. Sometimes, all you need is a quiet moment like this 🧘♂️. #peace #calm #nature
Very peaceful place in the midst of busy Tokyo, walkable from the main station. If you have large luggage you can store at the station for ¥1000 for all day and take a stroll outside. The lights in the evening make it more romantic to just sit down and soak it all in
