Just north of the Midtown Tower lays a small gem of Roppongi, especially for those with tired feet or a hankering for a greener sight in a crowd of steel giants. Hinokicho Park provides a serene getaway, equipped with plenty of benches, beautiful floral arrangements—especially the summer months, when there are hydrangeas abound—and stone walking paths crossing through calming water streams that lead to a few ponds on the site.

Hinokicho Park in Roppongi
A small, quiet getaway from the buzz of the city

By Hannah Morse

Stop by to smell the flowers or enjoy the quiet sounds of nature.

Hydrangeas in June can range in colors from pink, purple or blue.

A traditional Japanese teahouse overlooks the pond.

A garden worker helps keep the park pristine year-round.

The streams gracefully intertwine in Hinokicho Park--and you have the option of crossing them by bridge or by conveniently placed rocks.

Signs placed around the park let visitors know the names of plants growing in the area.

Plenty of seating--especially in the typically bench-less town of Tokyo--is quite inviting for visitors.
