茅野市運動公園, park in Japan
Chino Sports Park is a 34-hectare facility in northwestern Chino with baseball and track fields, tennis courts, an international skating center, children's play areas, and broad open lawns. The park has parking areas and is laid out so visitors can walk between the different sports venues and rest between activities.
The park was founded in 1978 and originally served as a baseball field for local games. Since then it has expanded with many additional sports facilities and became an important center for sports and recreation in the city.
The park's name reflects its role as a sports facility for Chino city. Visitors can observe people of all ages gathering to exercise together or walk through the grounds, showing how much this place matters to community life.
The park is easily reached by car and has free parking in several locations on the grounds. For visitors without a car, the distance to the nearest station is considerable, so using public transportation or a taxi is recommended.
The park is known for being where Olympic speed skater Nao Kodaira trained and won gold medals at the Olympic Games. The international skating center is thus a place with sporting traditions and attracts figure skating and speed skating enthusiasts.
