This is my favorite park in Tokyo . It's usually much less crowded than others parks in the city . Beautiful all year long and with different styles of gardens . An oasis surrounded by skyscrapers .

Artyom Fedosov

Pretty japanese garden among skyscrapers . For drowning in green, enjoying the beauty of nature and deep relaxing. Don't miss this park , it's one of the best in Tokyo.

Zara

Absolutely beautiful park with greenhouse, tea house etc. Can easily spend a whole day here and entry is cheap . Recommend going to Shinjuku-gyoen-mae Station as it's a fair walk from Shinjuku Station.

Magdalena Mrázková

You pay 200yen at the entrance but it's more than worth it. Gardens are so beautiful, and the grass is more than inviting to sit on;)

Jay S

Probably the most beautiful park in Tokyo . Several styles of landscapes from british, to french to the typical japanese one with cute bridges and a big pond . It's worth the 200¥ entrance.

Abdul Samat Mahat

It's a must visit every time I go to Tokyo ... It will give you a very relax atmosphere with many small children playing around ... And the restaurant serve a very gud Japanese food

Aldona

Amazingly beautiful! Japanese-style garden with a city skyline makes for postcard-like pictures. Tickets (¥200) sold at ticket machines. Gazillions of Pokémon trainers since Pikachus were spotted.

This is the quietest park in Tokyo . It combines traditional Japanese garden with some western elements. Don't miss the greenhouse in the northern part of the park .

Dan Castellano

Such a fabulous park with a great variety of flora, always something to see here even with the 500 yen entry fee

Kevin Dulin

The greenhouse is super cool and great to go to on a cold winter day!

Turkish Airlines

Witness the true beauty of nature at the Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden ! The tranquil setting and stunning atmosphere is definitely worth experiencing.

Eric Espiritu

Allocate at least an hour or 2 to make sure that you enjoy the time going around. The rose bushes have different seasons of blooming, so you may not be able to enjoy them all year round.

Julien

Was here during cherry blossom (April 2-5). This place is simply magical! A must see in Tokyo!

Karl Warden

Wowwwww the cherry blossoms were gorgeous! 200 yen entrance fee is a small price to pay for the stunning grounds. The greenhouse was great too.

AussieInJapan Aussieinjapan

Worth the ¥200 admission. Great spot to take an obento lunch from nearby Isetan department store , but remember alcohol is prohibited in the park .

Alèxia Solé

Beautiful Park to enjoy a walk, a picnic , to see the cherryblossom when it's time, etc. It is very Well taken care of. And you'll find public toilets in good condition.

Sherry Ju

Such a lovely garden with massive green areas . Perfect for family and friend gathering and picnics .

Abdul Ghafur Ramadhan Md Nahowi

A must visit when you go Tokyo, even though you need to pay ¥500 for entry fee, its still valuable for your money because of you will get so beautiful view here, more beautiful compare to Euno Park

Karolina 🦖

Best garden in Tokyo, hands down. Remember - they are not open in the evening, so don't head here past 3 pm.

It's really beautiful here and great place for photos during cherry blossom season . Pack a picnic and enjoy the peaceful surrounding .

Michelle Evangeline

A place to visit during the cherry blossom season ! Bring a mat and have picnic under the Sakura trees ! 200yen per adult.

Ian Chee

A beautiful garden in every season and a tranquil spot in the middle of the busy city . Perfect for picnics .

Mary S

Buy the season pass since prices are now 500 yen. Season pass is 2000.

Kevin Ng

Ailie Chang

Absolutely breathtaking! Put this place on your top places to visit in Tokyo. It's worth walking around the whole park .

Michelle Chen

Sakura season is amazing! Cost 200yen to get in. And try their Sakura ice cream if you get a chance.

William Kan

It may not be as famous and popular as say Ueno Park but it is in my opinion more beautiful than others.

Kevin Skobac

Pay two dollars to find your own little spot of calm relaxation in the middle of a crowded city .

Eugene Kim

My favorite garden in Tokyo. Make sure to find the flower garden and indoor greenhouse

Justin Searls

Good for a stroll or a sit when the weather is nice, but most areas don't provide much cover when there's searing heat (as you'd expect to find in mid-July)

Wala'a Al-Faqeeh

It’s vast, peaceful , and perfect for families. Clean restrooms , a variety of trees , and restaurants make it an ideal spot for a full day.

Brian Boelt

Must say that the park in November is not as spetacular as i had expected, but that said its a nice big park in the middle of Tokyo.

Matt Barber

Don't be put off by the queue to get in, went quickly. Plenty of space once inside. Amazing views of Japanese nature.

Lana Choi

One of fav places in Tokyo. Beautiful park - worth a visit and picnic here! Closes at 4:30

Yuan Nie

I think it would be beautiful like hell in cherry blossom season . But I went there in May so...Good for family and picnic day.

Colin Lee

Definitely check out the rakku-tei tea house for authentic matcha and wagashi (Japanese sweets)

Moo Ju

Beautiful garden with plenty of mosquitoes. Long sleaves a must!

Talita Haila

Beautiful place, A lot of sakuras, big line better go in the morning.

Natalie V

Beautiful gardens and nice to walk through. Lots of people hanging out with picnics , too.

One of the best parks in Tokyo . Entry is very cheap (¥200). Highly recommended!

ToonC

Near Exit 1 from Shinjukugyoenmae Station (Exit 1) on Marunouchi Tokyo Metro Line , Walking Distance from JR Shinjuku Station

Elif

May be the best Sakura park in Tokyo . Just silence and peace . 17.30 closing time is brutal, though :(

ML

Very good spot to enjoy sakura season . May get very crowded .

Charlotte Andersson

Don’t miss the Japanese gardens inside of the park .

VSandra

Go there and spend a whole day in this beautiful garden .

Japan Culture Agency Inc. (JCA)

Shinjuku Gyoen is one of Tokyo's largest parks , completed in 1906. one of Tokyo's most popular SAKURA (Cherry blossom ) viewing spots.

Kyosuke Sano

less crowded for rainy days, full of green that we can't see in Middle of Tokyo.

Mashael Zaidi

Gorgeous in every season, bring a picnic in spring for hanami . The autumn colours are amazing too!

Riri Maulidina

Must visit park ! Breezy wind, greenish view , and soothing atmosphere make your 200Y-entrance fee worth spent.

Karissa✨
