Mizusawa Park

Mizusawa Park is an urban park in Ōshū featuring walking paths, open meadows, and spaces where families spend time outdoors. The grounds include playgrounds and grassy areas designed for relaxation and recreation.

The park grounds contain ancient cherry trees designated as Natural Monuments of Iwate Prefecture, reflecting centuries of local history. These trees represent a deep connection to the region's past.
