Tokyo Equestrian Park reopens: Nov. 5, 2023

 

We cannot talk about Japan’s equestrian sports without referring to The Tokyo Equestrian Park, or Baji Park in Japanese, in Setagaya City in Tokyo. The park hosted equestrian competitions in the Tokyo Olympic Games in 1964 and 2021.

It is also used for various equestrian events. The site is also used as a public park.

 

The park has been closed since 2017 for renovation (only parts of the site were open during the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2021).

On Nov. 3, 2023, the park reopened.

I enter the park from the main gate and found a wide lawn fields. Kids were running around.

 

Facilities, such as a competition arena, office buildings, have been renovated.

There is a walking bridge in a preserved natural forest.

The drinking fountain is horse shape. (See the 2nd photo)

 

It is good to have a comfortable green-rich park in Setagaya City.
