There are places in the area between Hamacho and Ningyocho where you can enjoy beautiful cherry blossoms even though the size is small.

Hamacho Park is the oldest and largest park in Chuo Ward. It was built in a reconstruction project after the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923. Not only those who lay a sheet and see the flowers in earnest, but also many people sit on a chair and eat lunch. It is located directly above Hamacho Station on the Toei Shinjuku Line.

You. The landfill was completed in 1972, so it can be said that it is a relatively new place for cherry blossoms. There is a fierce battle for Hanami (laughs), and there are many groups that make reservations for the date and time around the place with tape.
