This immersive 4K walking video takes viewers through Koganei Park and the renowned Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum, both located in western Tokyo. The video begins with a stroll through the spacious Koganei Park (小金井公園), a popular but not overly crowded destination known for its scenic gardens, open spaces, and tranquil atmosphere. With only natural surround sound and no narration, viewers can enjoy the authentic ambience of summer in Tokyo, complete with the sound of cicadas and the distant murmur of city life.

The primary highlight of the video is the Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum (江戸東京たてもの園), an outdoor museum dedicated to preserving and showcasing historic buildings from the Edo, Meiji, Taisho, and Showa periods. After a short walk, the video guides you through the museum’s impressive collection of relocated and reconstructed structures. Notable stops include the House of Hachirouemon Mitsui, the House of Georg de Lalande, the farmhouse of Tsunashima, and the House of the Leader of the Hachioji Guards. The museum grounds are laid out like a village, offering a unique glimpse into the architectural and daily life of Tokyo through the ages.

In addition to private residences, the video features public landmarks such as the Imperial Palace Main Gate Ishibashi Ornamental Lamp, Manseibashi Police Box, and the Ueno Fire Station Tower Top. Commercial streets offer insights into old Tokyo commerce, with stops at a soy sauce shop, an oil-paper umbrella store, a traditional udon restaurant, a stationary store, a kitchenware store, and a grocery shop. Further highlights include a Teatime break, Jomon dwelling recreation, public bathhouse, and glimpses of period transportation like the city train model 7500.

Koganei Park is conveniently located for tourists wanting to experience Tokyo’s green spaces and history, while the Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum is a must-visit for architecture and heritage enthusiasts. Both locations provide an engaging way to experience Japanese culture away from the most crowded tourist spots. The video was recorded on a summer afternoon in July 2025, with clear visuals captured using professional camera equipment.
