Masayoshi Ōhira Park, Japanese-inspired park in Coyoacán, Mexico City, Mexico.

Parque Masayoshi Ōhira contains walking paths, benches, gardens, and a lake surrounded by traditional Japanese architectural elements in the Churubusco district.

Established in 1942 as Parque de la Pagoda, the space received its current name in 1980 following a visit from Japanese Prime Minister Masayoshi Ōhira.

The park features Japanese design elements including torii gates and cherry trees donated by the Japanese-Mexican community during the 2015 renovation.

Located near General Anaya metro station on Line 2, the park underwent a 6-million-peso restoration in 2015 that added new lighting and improved pathways.

The park served as a filming location for Mexican cinema in the 1950s due to its proximity to Churubusco Studios, appearing in productions like El señor fotógrafo.
