Let’s talk Tokyo and the ultimate Sakura night-view spot — Chidorigafuchi Park! 🌸✨ On my Tokyo adventure, the highlight was easily yozakura (night sakura) at this hidden gem. Imagine riverside cherry blossoms glowing under magical lights, creating the dreamiest evening stroll in the city. And the best part? It's absolutely free!
Must-See Place: Chidorigafuchi Park
Location: Japan, 〒100-0001 Tokyo, Chiyoda City, Kojimachi, 1 Chome−2
Opening Hours: Open 24/7, year-round
Tip: Time your visit during sakura season (late March–early April). After sunset, the illuminations kick in for peak yozakura vibes.
Why Chidorigafuchi?
Having checked out Tokyo’s famous cherry blossom spots, this is hands-down the best place for night views and illuminations. You’ll skip the overwhelming crowds at Ueno or Shinjuku Gyoen and get free entry plus peaceful paths along the water.
How to Get There & Around:
The park is right near Kudanshita Station (Tokyo Metro Tozai, Hanzomon, Shinjuku lines). Just a 5-minute walk away. For the full sakura circuit, hop on Tokyo’s metro using a prepaid Suica/PASMO card — super convenient.
Eat Like a Local:
Grab some convenience store snacks (onigiri, sweet sakura mochi) before heading in since the area doesn’t have many restaurants open late. Picnicking under the illuminated petals is a vibe!
Tokyo Tips:
No tickets required, but arrive earlier in the evening for the best viewing spots. Bring a jacket; the riverfront gets chilly at night.
