Kanazawa Natural Park, Urban park in Kanazawa-ku, Japan.
Kanazawa Natural Park is a spacious green area nestled in the Miura Hills with walking trails, open meadows, and wooded sections. The varied landscape allows visitors to spend time in different ways, from leisurely walks to sitting quietly in nature.
The park was established in 1982 as a recreational area for the expanding city. Its creation was part of a larger effort to provide green spaces in an increasingly developed region.
The park functions as a meeting point where residents engage in traditional Japanese outdoor practices such as nature observation and seasonal celebrations.
The park features marked trails, rest areas, and basic facilities like restrooms and parking. Most paths are fairly accessible and work well for different fitness levels.
The park is home to a zoo where visitors can see animals in natural-looking settings. This combination lets people experience both wild landscapes and kept animals in one location.
