Oyamadairi Park

Oyamadairi Park is a large green space spanning Machida and Hachioji that includes artificial ponds with carp and turtles, walking paths throughout the grounds, play areas for children, and barbecue zones. The layout allows visitors to explore different parts based on what they want to do.

This park opened on July 1, 2004, as part of Tokyo's effort to add green spaces to increasingly built-up areas. Its creation shows how the city began prioritizing outdoor recreation in its urban development.

Four wildlife sanctuaries within the park let you watch local birds and small animals going about their daily lives. Residents often visit these areas to connect with nature and learn what species live nearby.

Tama-Sakai Station on the Keio Sagamihara line provides the most direct access to the park. If you drive, parking facilities are available on-site, making it easy to visit by car as well.

Information panels near the observation deck overlooking the ponds explain the features of local wildlife species. These guides help visitors recognize and understand the animals they might spot during their visit.
