Located in Tokyo’s westside not too far from Nakano Broadway is the beautiful piece of Mother Nature known as Inokashira Park — a hidden gem!

Honestly, one of the most beautiful parks I’ve ever been to, Inokashira Park just seemed to showcase nature at its peak. The trees were thick, the lake crystal clear, and the leaves golden brown, creating an other-worldly atmosphere that’d have you believe you were far from the big city.

Stunning Autumn Leaves!

Perhaps I was just in the right place at the right time, but Inokashira Park truly displayed a serene vibe like no other.

In the autumn months of October and November, the park turns from lush green to golden brown and red, with a cool breeze rustling the trees and blowing the leaves through the wind.

With plenty of park benches and vending machines along the way, Inokashira Park is one of my favorite places in Tokyo to sit down and relax with a nice hot beverage!
