Visit Report: Zou-no-Hana Park

This spacious park opened to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the port's opening.

The name "Zou-no-Hana" (Elephant's Nose) comes from the shape of the seawall, which has gradually changed over time and resembles an elephant's trunk.

While the park bustles with tourists during the day, it transforms into a peaceful atmosphere once night falls.

The screen panels installed around the park light up, creating a beautiful nighttime view.

We recommend taking photos that combine the park with Red Brick Park or the luxury cruise ships docked at Osanbashi Pier.

Be sure to visit during your evening stroll around the Minato Mirai area.
