Ōtaguro Park, Japanese strolling garden in Ogikubo, Tokyo, Japan.

The garden spans 8,972 square meters with stone pathways winding through a landscape of traditional Japanese design featuring a central pond and seasonal plants.

The garden stands on the former estate of music critic Motoo Otaguro, which was donated to Suginami City and transformed into a public park in 1981.

The park includes a traditional tea room made of Akita cedar and a memorial building that displays the original owner's piano and phonograph collection.

Located seven minutes from Ogikubo Station, the park welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 to 16:30, except during national holidays, with free admission.

The garden incorporates 100-year-old ginkgo trees along its entrance path and features illumination events during the autumn foliage season from late November.
