Ōdaka Ryokuchi

Ōdaka Ryokuchi is a spacious park in Nagoya with diverse recreational areas including playgrounds, sports fields, and garden spaces. The grounds combine open areas for active play with quieter sections for walking and observation.

The park was established in 1963 as public spaces grew in Nagoya during a period of urban expansion. It developed as communities needed places for outdoor activity and recreation.

Traditional Japanese gardens within the park display carefully arranged plants and landscaping that change with the seasons. The spaces show how gardens are designed as places to observe nature's rhythms throughout the year.

Early morning or late afternoon visits tend to be quieter if you prefer fewer crowds. Well-maintained paths connect different areas throughout the park, making navigation straightforward.

A grass slide is a distinctive feature where visitors slide down on cardboard boxes for fun. Families and children often find this to be a memorable part of their visit.
