Toda Park was built between 1937 and 1940, centered around a rowing course which is the largest artificial still water course in Japan. Established as a city park after the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, it is used as a training area and competition venue for rowing, while also providing a relaxing environment filled with nature for the local citizens. The park is adjacent to the bank of the Arakawa River and also has an elevated plaza, flower beds, and lots of playground equipment, making it popular for not only its rowing course.

"Saiko" is a park developed along the Arakawa riverbed retention basin that's filled with nature; with the blooming of Japanese primrose and the beautifully maintained fields, visitors can relax and enjoy the change of the seasons. There is a spacious BBQ area where visitors can choose between a free area with no reservation required, and an area with BBQ prepared which requires a reservation.

With easy access by car, the park attracts more than one million visitors a year!
