Yoyogi Park is one of the biggest metropolitan parks in Tokyo. Located in the Shibuya/Harajuku area, a stroll in Yoyogi Park will give you a chance to escape from the fast-paced city life and help you relax. From cherry blossoms to bright autumn leaves, you can fully experience the 4 seasons we have in Japan. Yoyogi Park has a few kiosks located within the park, as well as many benches and tables everyone is welcomed to use. You can even buy food in the city and bring it to the park to enjoy on a sunny day. They frequently host events like food festivals from all over the world, so if you're lucky you might be able to experience those as well. If you're a dog lover, they have 2 big dog parks so you can enjoy watching dogs run and play around for free!

The Imperial Household Agency Shin-Hama Duck Hunting Grounds (Shin-Hama Kamoba) is a private hunting reserve located in the coastal area of Chiba Prefecture, Japan. It has been used by the Imperial Family for centuries for traditional wild duck hunting during the winter season. The grounds are managed by the Imperial Household Agency and are not open to the public. The area is an important part of Japan’s royal heritage, where duck hunting has been a longstanding custom. The wetlands, rivers, and marshes that make up the hunting grounds provide a rich environment for a variety of wildlife, particularly migratory ducks, making it a prime location for the Imperial hunting tradition. In addition to its historical significance, the Shin-Hama Duck Hunting Grounds also serve as a protected ecological space. Efforts to preserve the natural environment and wildlife in the area are closely maintained. While access to the grounds is highly restricted, it remains an iconic site connected to Japan’s imperial culture and traditions.
