Geocache Description:


The park has a pond called Shinji-ike in the shape of the Chinese character for "heart".
Japanese “kokoro” means “heart”

The parkland used to be the palace area of the feudal load, Matsudaira Bizennokami,up until the end of the Edo period. Then it served as a military drilling ground during the early part of the Meiji period. Later this park was designed and constructed as the first westernized urban-style park in Japan, and opened to the public in 1903.
Two outdoor music halls and the Hibiya public hall show enthusiasm of the park designer as a forerunner of culture. Now we can enjoy beautiful flowers all the year around in the center of Marunouchi, one of the hottest business town in Japan.

2 minutes walk from [Hibiya Sta.] of Tokyo-metro Hibiya Line,2 minutes walk from [Kasumigaseki Sta.] of Tokyo-metro Marunouchi Line and Chiyoda Line,8 minutes walk from [Yuurakucho Sta.] of JR Yamanote Line, Parking facilities available
