About
クイックファクト: Towering plane trees shade winding gravel paths so thick the city's roar fades and only birdsong and footsteps remain. A broad artificial lake captures fiery sunsets and mirrors the skyline, while paddleboats and lakeside cafés make evenings feel unexpectedly peaceful.
ハイライト: Walk the curved promenade at golden hour and you’ll hear the rhythmic clack of dozens of hand-painted pedal boats, smell cut grass and wet stone, and watch sunlight turn the lake into molten bronze. A quirky local tradition sees students and newlyweds writing wishes on paper strips and tying them to the boathouse railings; some ribbons and notes have been there for more than ten years, creating a fluttering, colorful timeline you can trace by date.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, paths are long and some areas are gravel.
- Head to the pedestrian bridge and fountain area for the best lake and skyline photos at golden hour.
- Avoid weekends or come early, local families fill the lawns and terraces in the afternoon.
- Carry small change for paddle boats and food stalls, and bring mosquito repellent in summer evenings.
