Kijō Park

Kijō Park extends across an area featuring ancient castle foundations, stone walls, and moats that form a natural boundary around the grounds.

The park preserves the remnants of Tsuchiura Castle from the Edo period, maintaining structural elements that showcase Japanese fortification techniques.

During spring, the park becomes the center of cherry blossom celebrations where people gather to observe the pink flowers and participate in seasonal festivals.

The park includes paved walking paths, information panels about the castle history, rest areas, and direct connections to local transportation networks.

The original castle moats remain intact, creating water features that encircle the park and provide habitats for local wildlife species.
