Symbol Promenade Park

Overview

Symbol Promenade Park is one of the largest waterfront parks in Tokyo, located in the Tokyo Bay area. It boasts a wide-open space overlooking Tokyo Bay. Characteristic bridges such as the West Park Bridge (crossing the Tokyo Bay Coast Road (National Route 357) and the Metropolitan Expressway Bayshore Route) and the Teleport Bridge offer stunning views of Tokyo Bay, the Rainbow Bridge, and the Tokyo Tower. Numerous unique sculptures are scattered throughout the park, enhancing the pleasure of a stroll. For example, "Flame of Liberty," a gift from France, is a roughly 27-meter-tall monument located near the center of the West Promenade. It's dramatically lit up at night, creating a magical atmosphere. This sculpture was presented to commemorate the "Year of France in Japan" in 1998 and was created by French sculptor Marc Couturier. Other notable sculptures include "Gravity-less Forest," "ROUND STRUCTURE-1995," and "Azure Sky Flower." Each has its own story and background, making exploration a rewarding experience. The park also features gardens bursting with seasonal flowers, grassy areas perfect for children to play, making it a family-friendly destination. Surrounding the park are numerous commercial facilities, hotels, and museums, ensuring a full day of enjoyment.
