About Kasai Rinkai Park#

Kasai Rinkai Park is a large urban park on the Tokyo Bay shoreline in Edogawa, Tokyo, developed on reclaimed land to provide green space and coastal recreation for the eastern Tokyo area. The park opened in the late 20th century and combines leisure facilities with managed natural habitats.

The Tokyo Sea Life Park aquarium and expansive tidal flats and bird sanctuary that attract migratory and resident waterbirds. The park also features family-friendly facilities, seaside promenades and an observation area offering views across Tokyo Bay and toward central Tokyo on clear days.

The site was created as part of Tokyo’s coastal development and reclamation projects and has been managed to balance recreation with habitat conservation. It lies on the eastern edge of metropolitan Tokyo and is accessible by rail and local transport from central parts of the city.

  • Coastal location: The park occupies reclaimed coastal land on Tokyo Bay in Edogawa ward and is well known locally for its seaside promenade, aquarium and birdwatching areas.

What to See#

  • Bird Sanctuary and Tidal Flats: A coastal bird sanctuary and tidal flat area on reclaimed land that is managed for birdwatching and supports migratory shorebirds and wintering waterfowl.
