Discover more about Tsukuda Park
Tsukuda Park, nestled in Tokyo's Chuo City, provides a peaceful retreat from the surrounding urban environment. Built atop the super embankments from the River City 21 development, the park offers scenic waterfront views and a glimpse into the area's history.
The park features a recreation of a lighthouse that dates back to the Bakumatsu period, offering a tangible link to the past. A cherry tree transplanted from Higashine in Yamagata adds seasonal beauty, while a surrounding moat evokes the atmosphere of old Tokyo. The park's design encourages relaxation and recreation, with open lawns and shaded walking paths.
Tsukuda Park is located on Tsukuda Island, which has a rich history. In the early Edo period, Tokugawa Ieyasu invited fishermen from Osaka to settle here, and the area became known for its maritime traditions. The island is also the birthplace of tsukudani, a savory dish simmered in soy sauce and mirin. Today, Tsukuda blends its historical roots with modern development, offering a unique atmosphere where traditional shops and residences stand alongside contemporary high-rise apartments.
