Shinsui Park

Shinsui Park is a garden space in Atami featuring ponds, streams, and pathways that wind through carefully tended gardens that display different seasons and Japanese landscaping principles. The grounds cover distinct areas where water channels and planted sections create a layered design following traditional arrangement methods.

The park was created as part of Atami's urban planning to provide green spaces that integrate nature with traditional Japanese design. Its development reflected efforts to connect the city with natural environments and classical landscaping methods.

The park reflects Japanese garden traditions through its carefully designed spaces that change with each season, creating visual experiences tied to nature's cycles. Visitors walk past water features and planted areas that show how this landscape follows classical principles of Japanese garden design.

The park welcomes visitors every day with free entry and provides seating areas, picnic spots, and locations along the trails suitable for photos. The paths are well-maintained and allow visitors to stroll through the different garden sections at their own pace.

Water sounds become part of the walking experience throughout the grounds, as streams and channels create natural audio as you move along the paths. This was deliberately designed as part of the traditional Japanese garden philosophy where sensory experiences beyond visual appeal matter deeply.
