Tetsugaku-dō Park, Urban park in Matsugaoka, Tokyo, Japan

The park features multiple philosophical structures, including lecture halls, bridges, and monuments spread across meticulously maintained gardens and pathways.

Philosophy scholar Inoue Enryo established the park in 1904, constructing the Four Sages Hall to honor Socrates, Kant, Confucius, and Buddha.

The Philosophy Hall Festival takes place annually in November, offering philosophical lectures and serving traditional tea and coffee to attendees.

The park contains two baseball fields, six tennis courts, an archery range, and remains open throughout the year except during the New Year period.

Each path, bridge, and structure within the park carries a philosophical name, reflecting the intellectual vision of its founder Inoue Enryo.
