Time Out says

Hamacho Park is a serene urban park nestled in the heart of Tokyo's Hamacho district. Despite its small size, it boasts lush greenery, well-maintained pathways, and benches perfect for relaxation. While not as expansive as some of Tokyo's larger parks, Hamacho Park provides a peaceful retreat with cherry blossoms, hydrangeas, and ginkgo trees providing scenic views year-round.

What’s on

Chuo Ward Oedo Bon Odori Festival

Head over to Hamacho Park for some communal dancing at the Chuo Ward Oedo Bon Odori festival. Held on August 21 and 22, this annual event marks the end of summer and honours ancestral spirits with a unique song and dance called the Chuo City Ondo – you can learn the steps here.  As with similar festivals across Japan, you’ll find food stalls serving crowd-pleasing street eats. Programme-wise, watch out for a traditional performing arts presentation at 4pm on Saturday. And make sure you catch the special taiko drum performances on Friday at 5.30pm and Saturday at 8.50pm – they mark the beginning and end of the Bon Odori festivities respectively.  If you’re looking to partake in the Bon Odori dance, the session starts at 5.50pm on Friday and 6.20pm on Saturday.
