How to Get to Nogawa Park #
From central Tokyo, take the JR Chūō Line to Kichijōji or Musashi-Sakai and transfer to a local bus toward Nogawa Park (routes vary by operator). Alternatively, it’s reachable on foot from nearby neighborhoods - expect a 15-30 minute walk from the nearest station depending on where in the park one aims to enter. Limited street parking is sometimes available at park edges.

- Follow the river path north from Nogawa Bridge - the park opens into meadows and a small wetland that most people miss.
- Bring insect repellent in summer: the wetland fringes attract dragonflies and mosquitoes in July-August.
