Dōhō Park, Urban recreational park in Ninomiya, Tsukuba, Japan.
Dohō Park is a large recreational area in Ninomiya with a ginkgo tree-lined promenade stretching from the main entrance to the New City Memorial Hall. The space includes tennis courts, an indoor swimming pool, and a natural grass multipurpose field for different activities.
The park was founded in 1980 as part of Tsukuba Science City's development plan to bring green spaces into the growing urban area. Its creation responded to the need for recreational spaces in a rapidly expanding city.
This is where local people come together for sports and community events that change with the seasons. The paths and open spaces are woven into the daily routines of residents who live nearby.
The park is within easy walking distance of local neighborhoods and offers different facilities for various activities without requiring long travel times. The pathways are well-maintained and accessible for visitors of different abilities.
A rubber-paved walking path circles the Dobonuma Swamp, letting visitors watch birds and observe nature up close in this quieter part of the grounds. This area stands apart from the sports facilities elsewhere in the park.
