Momoi Harappa Park, Urban park in Suginami, Japan.
Momoi Harappa Park is an urban green space in Tokyo's Suginami district with multiple areas designed for walking and recreation. It provides pathways, play areas, and open spaces that allow visitors to spend time outdoors and move through the landscape.
The site was a factory used for aircraft production during World War II and later by an automobile manufacturer before becoming a public park in 2011. This transformation reflects how Tokyo evolved from an industrial landscape to a city with green recreational spaces.
The park functions as a gathering place where neighbors meet and celebrate together during events like the Suginami Festa, which brings traditional music and activities to the community. You can see how the space shapes daily life here, with families walking, children playing, and people using the green areas as their own.
You can reach the park on foot from Nishi-ogikubo Station on the Chuo Line or by taking a bus from Ogikubo Station. The space is designed for different ways of spending time, whether you prefer walking the paths or sitting on the grass.
The park was built on an industrial site that still bears traces of its past as a factory, creating an interesting layer beneath the green surface. For visitors, this represents how former industrial areas in modern Tokyo are given new purpose and life.
