Udara M
★★★★★4 months agoBreathtaking views during the springtime, 🌸 when vibrant blossoms bloom and the landscape is alive with color. The beautiful pond is home to various fish species and ducks 🦆, with a walking track nearby that is fully wheelchair accessible ♿, making it effortless for everyone to enjoy. The area is filled with an array of flowers and lush greenery 🍃, creating a serene natural environment. Although it can be crowded and lively, the atmosphere remains energizing rather than calming. It is kid-friendly, allowing families to visit and enjoy outdoor activities together, making it an ideal spot for a day out. 👩👩👧👧

★★★★★3 months agoWhat a lovely park! We went there for a walk on Mother’s Day. We didn’t get to see the cherry blossoms but so lovely! There is another park nearby and e we could cross it walking to Spittelau, nice walk for a Sunday. This park is huge with playground and all, so if you are looking for a family plan in Sunday, this can be it! Setagaya park and then a walking through the second park. Ideal!
