What other travelers are saying about Asukayama Park
The park is not very big but nice. It contains three museums (of which the Paper Museum is the most interesting one),=an open-air stage (I attained an amateur show of very enthusiastic aged people and schoolgirls (from a junior school), very lively!); here is a kids' playground with a climbing hill/slide, and exhibits of an old streetcar s a steam locomotive which kids can climb. Of course there are toilets.
Also, the park boasts fountains – and very likely THE shortest funicular monorail in the world (free)!
Not a must-see bur definitely worth visiting if you're around.
The park facilities are very interesting, and the children all seemed to be having a great time. There are clean public restrooms and vending machines, and you can also take a cable car to get there, so there's no need to worry about being overburdened.
The castle-shaped design is also very magical, and I highly recommend bringing your kids for a walk.
"The perfect park for kids who love trains and history."
If there was a park where you could touch an actual steam locomotive and a tram, would you want to go? This is exactly the place.
The park is located close to the underground and JR lines and is accessible by a free cable car. The park is on a small hill, but is easily accessible with a pram.
There are well-maintained toilets, a shop and museum nearby, and a whole range of playground equipment for young children and adults. In the centre of the park is a landmark with playground equipment that looks like a castle on a mountain. Trains that used to be active in the past are arranged around it. This is a recommended hole-in-the-wall park.
Parking:Yes ¥150/30min 8:30am-4:30pm

Asukayama Park is a large park located in Tokyo's Kita ward that is famous as a sakura viewing spot. It is a great place to visit during late March when the park is full of Sakura and other flowers. There are also plenty of grassy areas for families to have picnics. It was crowded with people in my visit but it is still very enjoyable.
In addition to the beautiful scenery, there are also multiple museums in the park that you may want to visit. If you're interested in visiting one of the museums in the park, be sure to check their hours of operation ahead of time as they were close on Monday.
