Showa Kinen Park is a beautiful piece of green space. Actually, the park is one of Tokyo’s largest parks… it’s more than 1.49 square kilometres in size! Whether you are there for the play equipment, a picnic, the bouncy domes, the ride-on train or to rent bikes ( you can even rent those bikes with the baby seats – called Mamachari) – it’s a beautiful day out. The tulip festival is particularly stunning in Spring too. The most beautiful flowers bloom in the park in March, April and May. The food trucks are everywhere so if you forget your picnic there isn’t any need to worry.
