Shimizudani Park, Urban park in Kioichō, Tokyo, Japan

The park features ornamental ponds, flower gardens and mature cherry trees, with a forested area that provides seclusion from urban surroundings.

In March 1890, the land that belonged to Kii and Ito clans during the Edo period was transformed into a public park for local residents.

A memorial stone marks the location where Home Minister Toshimichi Okubo, a leader of Japan's modernization, was killed by former samurai in 1878.

The park remains open from 7:30 AM to 11:30 PM and stands within walking distance of Akasaka-Mitsuke Station and Kojimachi Station.

Two large stone fixtures from the old Edo water supply system, originally used in the Tamagawa River, remain preserved within the park grounds.
