Sumida Park

Taito · Parks & Gardens

Sumida Park is a long riverside park that stretches along both banks of the Sumida River, famous for its classic cherry blossom and fireworks views in Tokyo. The park is located in the Asakusa and Sumida areas, between the Azumabashi and Sakurabashi bridges, offering a distant view of the Tokyo Skytree and the Asahi Beer Tower, making it a representative landmark for enjoying the city skyline and river scenery. In spring, nearly a thousand cherry trees bloom along the riverbank for about 1 kilometer, while in summer, it serves as an important viewing spot for the Sumida River Fireworks Festival, making it suitable for walking, picnicking, and taking water buses throughout the year. The Taito Ward side is close to Senso-ji Temple and Nakamise Street, making it convenient to plan a trip to the old streets of Asakusa.
