Kiryū-ga-oka Park

Kiryū-ga-oka Park combines entertainment facilities with a zoological garden across extensive grounds in the Miyamoto-chō and Nishihisakata-chō districts.

The establishment of Kiryū-ga-oka Park in 1953 marked a significant development in post-war Japan's recreational infrastructure for local communities.

The park hosts traditional Japanese festivals throughout the year, bringing together residents for seasonal celebrations and community gatherings.

The park maintains dedicated picnic areas, walking paths, and rest facilities, with clear signage directing visitors to different attractions and animal exhibits.

During spring, the park grounds transform with cherry blossoms, creating natural corridors where visitors can observe both flowering trees and zoo animals.
