Peaceful Serigaya Park

A green oasis in Machida City

A pergola in a nest of green

The still ponds create magnificent reflections

Ornamental koi swim in the park's ponds

Paths lead the visitor through the trees

Stepping stones across a pond

You can listen to the refreshing sound of flowing water

A corner of the park has children's play equipment

The foliage seems to merge into the reflections of the pond

A pair of orange koi drift in a patch of water weed

At the far end of the park wooden decking takes you closer to blooming irises

This large open area is used for festivals and events

The huge kinetic fountain makes playing in the shallow pool more fun for kids

A man-made waterfall and stream invites paddlers

The Machida City Museum of Graphic Arts stands near the entrance of the park

The park is long and narrow

This beautiful park in Machida is a popular place for family picnics at weekends. On weekdays it offers a peaceful place surrounded by nature's beauty to strollers, dog walkers and picnickers. It is also a handy place for special events in Machida such as the spring festival and the yabusame (horseback archery) event that is part of Machida's Jidai Matsuri.
