Tama Central Park is an urban park in the Ochiai area that provides a range of facilities and green spaces for visitors. The grounds include walking trails, dedicated sports fields, recreational areas, and landscaped sections designed for different types of activities.

The park is accessible via the Keio Line, with Naganuma Station providing the nearest connection and a short walk to reach the grounds. Visitors should wear proper footwear as the terrain includes multiple pathways and varying elevations throughout the site.
The park blends traditional Japanese garden design with contemporary sports facilities, allowing both contemplative and active recreation in the same location. This combination demonstrates how modern parks can preserve classical aesthetic principles while supporting varied leisure activities.
