What other travelers are saying about Moerenuma Park

Very enjoyable and relaxing morning with kids. Bicycle rental is available at the entrance at reasonable price. It's got a small chilling pool for kids to have fun in summer time. A bit remote from downtown which took us 20-30 minutes by taxi.

Beautiful park. Extremely well maintained and clean like the other many beautiful parks in Japan. Have to take the bus out here which came on time to and fro here.

Love it here! Took the taxi from Sapporo, the fare can get expensive but it's worth it. Plan to spend at least a couple of hours here. Rent a bike to get around the ground. The place is huge, a bike will help and it's an enjoyable ride. Lots of outdoor area to explore. If you like Landscape design, architecture or just design enthusiasts, you will love it here. If you are a fans of Isamu Noguchi then it's a must visit place if you are in Sapporo.

Moerenuma Park was created on the site of a garbage disposal site. Under the concept of ‘turning the entire park into one sculpture,’ world-renowned sculptor Isamu Noguchi (イサム · ノグチ) was in charge of the basic design. Anyone can freely touch or climb on the various forms of artwork placed in a large green area. The park's biggest attraction is the glass pyramid 'HIDAMARI' with the pretty name 'Where the Sun Sets'. Inside, there is a restaurant, souvenir shop, and observation room. It is recommended for families as it is great for children to run around freely. You can also rent a bicycle at the east entrance and tour the park.

Very interesting park, has great views. Doesn't have many places to sit down if you wanted to rest. Would recommend going a cloudy day or slightly rainy afternoon.
