Jōhoku Chūō Park

Jōhoku Chūō Park is a metropolitan park spanning large grounds across Nerima and Itabashi wards with distinct facilities for different activities. The space features baseball diamonds, tennis courts, and tree-lined walking paths that connect various sections of the grounds.

The grounds opened as a public park in 1957 after being used for different purposes during earlier decades. Archaeological discoveries on the site reveal connections to earlier settlements and activities in this location.

The park functions as a focal gathering space where neighbors and sports groups regularly meet and spend time outdoors together. The sports facilities reflect how deeply the grounds are woven into the daily rhythm of the surrounding communities.

The park is reachable on foot from Kami-itabashi Station on the Tobu Tojo Line, making access straightforward for most visitors. Comfortable walking shoes are useful since the grounds are large and exploring the space involves considerable walking.

The park cultivates eucalyptus trees of different species specifically to provide food for koalas at the nearby Tama Zoological Park. This botanical connection between the grounds and the zoo remains unknown to many who visit.
