Jōyama Park, Urban park and castle ruin in Nagano, Japan.

Walking trails throughout Jōyama Park lead visitors through groves of cherry trees and past multiple outdoor sculptures created by Japanese artists.

Established in May 1903, the park incorporates the remnants of a feudal castle, preserving an important piece of local architectural heritage.

The park features several sculptures including 'Rest' by Kyoko Asakura and 'Smile of Olmec' by Kiyoshi Takahashi, representing Japanese artistic expression.

The park opens daily with fountains operating from 9:30 AM, offering visitors access to restrooms, benches, and designated picnic areas.

The elevated position of Jōyama Park allows visitors to observe the entire city of Nagano while surrounded by seasonal cherry blossoms.
