Shinagawa Kumin Park

The 13-hectare Shinagawa Kumin Park extends over a kilometer in length, featuring a large pond with bridges, fountains, and small streams throughout the grounds.

The park came into existence through the partial filling of Katsushima Canal, leading to its official inauguration on April 1, 1983, followed by formal inception in 1987.

The park contains five distinct zones that reflect Japanese landscape design principles, including Sakura Plaza where cherry trees mark seasonal celebrations.

The park facilities include baseball fields, tennis courts, swimming pools, barbecue areas with stone grills, and numerous walking paths through landscaped gardens.

The artificial saltwater lake, Katsushima-no Umi, connects to the adjacent canal system, creating an integrated water feature within the urban environment.
