Tsuruma Park and Meijo Park too noisy!!

I think there are many people from overseas who want to enjoy cherry blossom viewing in Nagoya. Tsuruma Park and Meijo Park are often recommended. Both are large parks with lots of cherry blossom trees, making them perfect places for cherry blossom viewing. Below is a map of the locations of the two parks.

However, there is a disappointing point: both parks are noisy during cherry blossom viewing season. There are a lot of people, there are a lot of food stalls, and you can drink alcohol, so it can’t be helped. I would rather go to calm place to watch cherry blossom and feel the changing seasons quietly. That’s why I like walking along the banks of the Yamazaki River. There are a lot of people here, but it’s not noisy. Recommended for people who want to enjoy cherry blossoms quietly.

Walking along with Yamazaki river with enjoying cherry blossom

Not all of the banks of the Yamazaki River are lined with cherry blossom trees. Four Seasons Road of Yamazaki River(Place is attached above) is well prepared to walk along. This place is located between three subway station Mizuho undojo higashi, Mizuho undojo nishi and Aratama bashi and you have to walk at least 10 minutes from these subway stations.

I went there in the morning in the beginning of April in 2024. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom and I had a quiet and pleasant morning. Please note that it may be difficult to eat or drink. There aren’t any stalls like Tsuruma Park. Convenience store is also far away. It is better to prepare drinks in advance.
