What other travelers are saying about Tsuruma Park

We went at the end of March 2025, which was unfortunately a little too early for the full bloom. Regardless, it was still pretty and I could tell that this would be a good location for cherry blossom viewing. They cordon off the hanami areas, where many people will be picnicking. However, they leave a trail in the middle so that you can still walk through and enjoy being in the midst of the flowers. There are numerous food trucks selling festival food. Overall, you can have a good time here admiring the cherry blossoms.

Went there for 花見 (flower viewing 2025). Although the place was filled with people the park was really nice. Definitely would go there again on a day with fewer people. It's a good spot for flower viewing.

Lovely park with a variety of gardens. We went to see the hydrangea walkway in early June, and it did not disappoint. Lovely blooms along a walkway of about 300 meters. There were a lot of people there taking pictures, but it's not peak season yet and didn't feel crowded. We saw plenty of people with dogs, and there were also playgrounds and plenty of places to sit and relax. The park is clean and feels very safe.

It is a beautiful park which is tastefully adorned with flowers, trees, bonsai with a lovely pond and thematic gardens and plots. Every view is picturesque and weather although warm and slightly cloudy. Great place to visit in Nagoya City!
