Yono Park, Urban park in Hommachinishi, Japan.

Yono Park contains over 200 varieties of roses and 300 cherry trees across its landscaped grounds in the central area of Saitama City.

The park establishment in 1877 marked a significant development in public recreational spaces during Japan's modernization period of the late 19th century.

The Tenzo Shrine within the park grounds enshrines Amaterasu Omikami, connecting the space to traditional Japanese spiritual practices and beliefs.

The park remains open throughout the year with free admission, offering designated smoking areas, wheelchair accessibility, and permitted dog walking with leads.

A bronze statue titled 'Sho' stands among 190 rose varieties, while a sacred spring recalls the tale of Hatakeyama Shigetada's sword purification.
