Nishigawara Natural Park - Komae

The main park is trees.

A park with a murmuring along the Nishikawara public hall, a short break when you see the cherry blossoms in the coming season.

When you go through this road, it's time to go to the bathroom ? The cherry blossoms are in full bloom this season and you feel better ?

It's been 33 years since I used it as a toilet when I went to the bakery Tokutaro and Kawasaki Daishi! I've never rested slowly, but it's a place where I take a break every time

An adult park with small ponds and streams The park was established due to the circumstances of adults who have a stinking background. Quoted below Around 1971, the year after the city system came into effect Although the Tama River housing complex was being built There are few houses in the Nishikawara area Pear field and paddy field spread There was still a quiet rural landscape left. Because it was the riverbed of the Tama River After digging a little, I was able to collect good quality gravel. The same applies to Izumi-Tamagawa, Inogata, and Komai. Gravel has already been collected around here. At that time, the welfare hall was under construction Suddenly one day around the current Nishigawara Park Gravel mining started and from nearby residents Voices against mining rise It triggered the acquisition of the park site. Around this time, the city was taking measures against the rapid increase in population. Being busy building schools and nurseries Because it was just before the sewerage maintenance The finances were very difficult and the park was delayed. Shortly before this, on the construction of the current Komae High School Because the school site was a planned area of ​​green space I decided to remove the green space designation At this time, we should also proceed with the maintenance of the park There was guidance from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. If there is a park on the south side of the welfare hall You can see Mukaigaoka and Mt. Fuji across the Tama River It is a great location because it can be done. This area was also a green area. For this reason, the area where gravel mining began is called a park. Decided to buy and maintain the site As a result of consulting with the capital about its financial resources There is a policy to reduce paddy fields from the country as a measure against surplus rice Since it had been launched, we issued a special bond for paddy field measures. It was to allow. In addition to this, I had a lot of trouble dealing with it About 14,000 square meters of our park site in the Tama River green area By making the paddy field a park, we negotiated an acquisition with the owner. Negotiations were difficult with 14 landowners involved Some were acquired in August 1946, The rest were acquired in March at the end of the year. The total land acquisition cost is 640 million yen It was a considerable amount of money at that time We responded by issuing full bonds. Designed in 47, it took 48 to 3 years The park was maintained. The cost required for this is about 710 million yen. It opened in 1951. This park has been open for more than 10 years Naoki Tonogi grows to show the passage of time It colors the seasons and soothes the large number of visiting citizens. Even in 1946, urbanization had already progressed, Today it is 14,000 square meters When the land is gone and the land price is soaring This park has become a valuable presence.

It is adjacent to the old folk house garden. There is an eastern house in the park, there is a pond, and a stream runs beside the promenade, so you can spend a relaxing time.
