Hanyū Riverside Park

Hanyū Riverside Park is a recreational area that stretches along the Tone River, with open lawns, children's playgrounds, and spaces for outdoor activities. The grounds include different zones for relaxation, play, and watching nature right beside the river.

The park was founded in 1981, transforming a natural riverside area into a public recreation space for the region. This development opened the Tone River banks to everyone in the community.

The park serves as a gathering place where locals celebrate seasonal changes throughout the year. People come together here to mark important times and enjoy shared experiences with those close to them.

The grounds allow activities like canoeing and boat rentals that vary depending on the season. The best time for water sports is spring through fall, when conditions are most favorable.

The grounds protect a special plant called Mujinamo that is protected by law in Japan. This rare water plant is one reason the park serves a purpose beyond simply recreation.
