Musashino Park

Musashino Park is a metropolitan green space spanning Fuchū and Koganei with open areas and planted zones throughout. The landscape features an artificial hill created from soil excavated during local construction, along with walking paths and recreational facilities.

The park was founded in 1969 and quickly became a major plant nursery for Tokyo. Trees and vegetation grown there have supplied green spaces across the city since the park's early years.

The park is a gathering place where locals come to walk and enjoy nature, especially when cherry blossoms bloom in spring and fill the paths with pink flowers. It serves as a retreat from the surrounding residential areas.

The park is freely accessible for walking and picnicking, though barbecue areas require prior registration. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes as the grounds offer varied terrain including paths and a hill to explore.

The park operates a working tree nursery housing hundreds of plant species, serving not only as a public garden but also as a research facility for urban tree cultivation. This dual purpose sets it apart from typical recreational parks.
