Koganei Park in western Tokyo is home to approximately 1,900 cherry trees of multiple varieties, making it one of the largest single-park blossom collections in the greater Tokyo area. The annual Sakura Matsuri fills the park with food stalls, live performances, and family events throughout the bloom period. Within the grounds, the Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum displays relocated historic buildings from across Tokyo, adding a unique cultural dimension to any hanami visit. Spacious lawns allow comfortable picnicking even during peak weekends.
