The largest metropolitan park, it has a rich natural environment that preserves valuable rural scenery. Primarily consisting of deciduous forest with species like konara and sawtooth oak, the park provides the opportunity for woodland activities like hiking and bird watching. There are always beautiful natural views that change with the seasons. The park also has events and activities to help you enjoy the rural area. Many of them happen at an old-fashioned minka farmhouse that revives the architecture of the Edo period.

    Tokyo Tachikawashi Akebonochou 1-36-1
    This is a dedicated theater for Taishu Engeki where theatrical companies tour around Japan performing historical plays, buyo (Japanese dance), and kayo (Japanese ballads), and the facility is located about six minutes on foot from JR Tachikawa Station. There are three types of seats available: gallery seating, tamari seating (the first two rows closest to the stage) and chair seating. The distance between the seats and the stage is close enough to clearly make out the expressions on the actors’ faces, allowing guests to enjoy plays that are full of presence. Part of the appeal to this theater is that visitors can enjoy various programs that change each month since it invites popular theatrical troupes from all over Japan to hold performances.

Tokyo Areas

The setting of countless iconic movie scenes and the inspiration for songs, poetry, and literature worldwide, Tokyo barely requires an introduction. It’s hard for the kaleidoscopic neon lights, wacky pop culture, and some of the world’s tallest structures not to instill excitement in any first-time visitor to Tokyo, whether you’re in the very center of the hustle and bustle in Shinjuku or Shibuya or looking in from the quieter suburbs.
