Built on the site of Japan's first airfield, Tokorozawa Airfield, this large park has an area of about 50 hectares. Overflowing with nature, the park is never without visitors. There are real airplanes, as well as sports facilities, an athletic field with artificial grass, a tennis court, and a baseball field. There is also an outdoor stage, tearoom, and a Japanese garden, making the park a center for exchange between sports and culture in the western part of the prefecture.

Houses of farmers who are responsible for the production of Miyoshi-machi’s specialty product “Fuji-no-kawagoe-Imo” are lined up on the highroad. During the season, banner-flags are risen and a range of products can be bought directly from each farmer which is something that can only be done at the district of production (from September to January). There are also farmers who sell ice cream and yōkan made by Fuji-no-kawagoe-Imo and shōchū. In addition, there are large Japanese zelkovas on both sides of the highroad which is another highlight.
