Komazawa Olympic Park

Don’t drive here… it’s so hard to park car especially when there is an event as today. Came here for Ramen … Waiting inline to park for last 20 min now…

This park is huge and comfortable. In sunny weekends there are many people having fun, taking a rest, reading books. We can do whatever we would like to.
My friends live near this park and they have salsa lesson so I come here for it. There are some big parks in Tokyo, like Yoyogi Park and Kinuta Park. Sometimes Komazawa Park has events.
Especially I like free market. We can buy cheap things there. If you would like to try, you can also buy your stuff there. In that case you need to book the place before hands. I have never been to join free market as a shopper but I guess it is fun. You can get money from things not necessary for you anymore, and people who want them can get much cheaper than usual when they but at shops. When I go to free market I feel both shoppers and visitors are really exciting and enjoying the event.
There are other small scares of free markets but this is one of the largest scale and many people join. It might happen you see your old friends your teachers. Good access from Shibuya or other stations in central Tokyo. Please do not miss to visit this good park. I am sure you would like it.
You can come alone and spend quiet time and relax, you can come with your friends and have an outdoor party by bringing your food and drink. You know outdoor party is much cheaper and more exciting than hub. You can shout. You can sleep on the glass. You can suddenly run. You can play balls after lunch. You can do anything you want!

This is a lovely family park with all sorts of facilities you can think of. I usually come here to ride my bike on their bicycle track. The cycling course circles around the whole park so you can ride around without stopping for pedestrians or traffic. I especially love it during spring when their large cherry blossoms; it’s as if you’re having a picnic under a sea of pink clouds.
Although slightly dated, it is still a lovely reactionnal park.
