The best free spot to view beautiful hydrangeas in Tokyo is actually here!
Because of work, I only stayed in Tokyo for a short thirty-some hours and didn't have time to go to Kamakura to take pictures of hydrangeas. I found a free spot in Tokyo to enjoy the hydrangeas online, and it was even more stunning in person!

⭕ The densely blooming hydrangeas line both banks of the river, and they come in a variety of colors. With the hydrangeas in the foreground, you can take layered photos that include Tokyo's Skytree and passing trains.
⭕ It is recommended to come around six o'clock (Tokyo's sunset time is around seven o'clock in the summer), when the light is softer, and you can also wait until after the sun sets to take pictures of the illuminated Skytree. ) There are not many visitors, so it's easy to get a shot without people in it.
⭕ The photo was taken on 6.13, and it is currently the peak bloom season, so if you want to take pictures, do it soon!
📍 Address: 9-37 Kameido, Koto-ku, Tokyo, Japan
🚞 Transportation: A fifteen-minute walk from Hirai Station on the JR Sobu Line
It is a small river where you can feel nature. Ideal for a walk.
Although it is a relatively small river, you can walk along the river. Kameido Mizukami Station on the Tobu Kameido Line is the nearest. It is located in the back through Kameido Central Park. You can enjoy rows of cherry blossom trees, hydrangeas, and birds that have overwintered throughout the season. If you walk along the river, it is less than 2 km from Tokyo Metropolitan Kameido Central Park to Tokyo Metropolitan Oshima Komatsugawa Park. It is also ideal for a walk course. Sometimes drama shooting is also done. I recommend it!
Kawazu pass near Fureai Bashi bridge in former Nakagawa
Recommended from the end of February to the beginning of March. Kawazu cherry blossoms are waiting. In 2022, the flowering accelerated after the March Hinamatsuri. It is a nice view day and night.

The former Nakagawa bank is beautifully maintained as a park and is a new famous place for Kawazu cherry blossoms. From mid-February to early March, you can enjoy the early-bloom dark pink Kawazu cherry blossoms and take pictures. It is also a famous place where hydrangeas are in full bloom during the rainy season. It's still minor, so why not take a walk or take a picture?
Down the throat.
It is a part separated by excavation of Arakawa waterway. It continues from Hirai to the Komatsu River, but because it is off the water transportation course, the width of the river is reduced, and the bank increases, making it a laid-back place with lush greenery. It is good to be a ward.
A calm river.
I watch it every day on weekdays. It is usually a very calm river, and it calms down when I look at it. During the heavy rain last year, I was worried that the water would increase very much and the embankment would overflow and break, but it was okay.
