Chikurin Park bamboo forest in Higashi Kurume in Tokyo’s west boasts around 2,000 trees, complete with a two-metre wide stream of natural spring water flowing through the park. The lush green of the bamboo leaves is especially beautiful in April and May. You’ll also find a large variety of different flowers and birds, and in the summer months, you can even spot some fireflies. There are no convenience stores nearby, so we recommend bringing a bento lunch or some snacks to enjoy at the park’s rest spots.
