By TokyoCityscape 東京の街並み

This walking tour video takes viewers through the scenic Chidorigafuchi Park (千鳥ヶ淵公園) in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo, at the peak of cherry blossom season. Chidorigafuchi is renowned for its vibrant sakura trees, which line the moats that once protected Edo Castle and offer some of the best cherry blossom views in the city. During spring, the park transforms into a pastel-hued wonderland, attracting locals and tourists alike for hanami—the traditional Japanese activity of flower viewing.

The walk begins amidst the lush, blooming cherry trees, highlighting the tranquil beauty of the park’s winding paths. Chidorigafuchi Park is a favorite for both leisurely strolls and seasonal picnics, and the video gives an up-close look at the cherry blossoms arching overhead and carpeting the ground with their delicate petals. The peaceful water of the moat, boats drifting by, and glimpses of the surrounding Chiyoda neighborhood help paint a picture of Tokyo’s harmonious blend between urban lifestyle and natural serenity.

Chiyoda Ward is the administrative heart of Tokyo, home to significant landmarks such as the Imperial Palace, government institutions, and the bustling business district. The area’s historical importance and central location make it a prime destination for those seeking a balance between Tokyo’s modern cityscape and cultural heritage. If you visit during sakura season (typically late March to early April), make sure to experience this iconic Tokyo cherry blossom spot, easily accessible by the Hanzomon and Kudanshita subway stations. Chidorigafuchi also offers illuminated views in the evening, creating a magical atmosphere unique to Tokyo’s spring nightlife.
