Chidorigafuchi Park, Park near Imperial Palace moat in Chiyoda-ku, Japan.
The 700-meter-long green walkway stretches along the moat of the Imperial Palace, displaying 260 cherry trees that bloom in spring colors.
The park, established in 1919, incorporates sections of former Edo Castle defenses, with its moat serving as a critical protective barrier for centuries.
During the Chiyoda Sakura Festival, hundreds of visitors gather to celebrate the cherry blossoms while participating in traditional hanami activities.
Visitors can reach the park through Kudanshita Station or Hanzomon Station, with boat rentals available from March through November for water exploration.
The name Chidorigafuchi translates to 'moat of plovers,' referring to the water channel's distinct shape that resembles these native birds.
