Heiwajima, Artificial island in Ota, Japan.

Heiwajima is an artificial island in Tokyo Bay with modern neighborhoods, hotels, and shopping centers. The island is connected through well-developed roads and public transportation networks.

The island was created through land reclamation projects in Tokyo Bay as part of Tokyo's expansion strategy. It was officially established in 1967 with a name meaning peace.

Monthly fish sampling studies between 2014 and 2015 documented 31,736 individual marine creatures representing 35 species in the Furuhama Park's waters.

Parks like Heiwajima Park and Heiwa-no-mori Park are within a short walk from the station. One offers camping facilities while the other provides sports amenities and recreational areas.

Furuhama Park contains tidal flats and shallow waters that serve as natural habitats for marine life. These coastal areas offer rare opportunities to observe marine ecosystems close to an urban center.
