Saigoyama Park
Meguro
· Parks & Gardens
Saigoyama Park is a ward park on a hillside in Aobadai, Meguro, Tokyo. The site was once the residence grounds of Saigo Tsugumichi, the younger brother of Saigo Takamori in the Meiji era, and was later developed by Meguro Ward into a leafy place for walking and relaxation. Although the park is not large, its varied elevation allows for a lawn plaza, an observation deck, and an artificial waterfall, making it a popular spot for strolling, dates, and family outings around Daikanyama and Nakameguro. On clear days, the observation deck offers views over the Meguro cityscape, and in winter, when visibility is good, Mt. Fuji can even be seen. The evening atmosphere is also especially romantic.
