Ukima Park, Metropolitan park in Itabashi and Kita wards, Japan
Ukima Park is a metropolitan park in the Itabashi and Kita wards featuring a central pond and expanses of green space. The grounds include sports facilities, walking trails, and playgrounds designed for different age groups.
The park opened officially in 1967 as a recreational space, evolving from an informal waterside gathering spot. This transformation into an organized park marked a turning point in how the area was used.
The park serves as a community gathering place where neighbors exercise together, walk their dogs, and celebrate seasonal events. These everyday activities shape the rhythm of life for people living nearby.
The park sits just a few minutes walk from Ukima-funado Station and is open 24 hours every day. Visitors can come at any time of year since the grounds are always accessible.
A distinctive windmill tower stands near the pond and has been the park's signature landmark since its early years. This structure is often overlooked by visitors even though it gives the place its visual character.
