Tama Kyūryō Prefectural Natural Park

The park extends across 19.59 square kilometers of rolling hills, woodlands, and open spaces within the urban landscape of Tokyo's western region.

The park received official designation as a prefectural natural park on November 23, 1950, establishing its role in environmental conservation and public recreation.

The name originates from the Tama Hills, which hold literary significance through their mention in the Man'yōshū, an ancient Japanese poetry anthology.

Multiple walking trails within the park allow visitors to explore different sections while information boards provide details about local flora and fauna.

The park location enables visitors to observe distant views of Chichibu Tama Kai National Park while remaining within Tokyo's metropolitan boundaries.
