Casting a ripple in the heart of Meguro City, Shimizuike Park offers a tranquil escape. Shimizuike Park isn’t your typical Tokyo park. It holds a secret.

Imagine casting your line, the city’s buzz fading into the background as you wait for a nibble. But there’s a catch. While the fishing is free, you can’t take your bounty home. It’s catch and release only. This adds to the park’s charm. It encourages a sense of respect for the environment and the delicate balance of its ecosystem. Shimizuike Park is more than just a fishing spot. It’s a small, 1.5-acre oasis. It’s perfect for a leisurely stroll. It has places for quiet contemplation. Shimizuike Park opens its gates at 6 am from April to September. It closes at 6 pm. From October to March, the park is open from 7 am to 5 pm. However, remember the park closes annually from June 24th to July 7th. It’s also closed on Mondays. There is an exception for holidays. It also opens on Mondays between July 21st and August 31st.
