Tokyo Waterfront Disaster Prevention Park is a lush green park located on reclaimed land in Tokyo Bay. In addition to leisure spaces such as lawn squares and barbecue areas, its purpose is to serve as a refuge during disasters. The park also has a disaster prevention facility called 'Sonae Area Tokyo' designed for a major earthquake directly under the capital.
The most popular facility here is the '72-hour tour' that simulates actual disasters. While holding a tablet and answering quizzes, you can experience a simulated disaster-stricken city. Children also participate seriously, experiencing collapsed buildings and hearing emergency earthquake alerts. Although there are some difficult parts, it is a valuable opportunity to learn disaster prevention knowledge while enjoying leisure activities.
On the other hand, the park has vast lawn squares where you can enjoy sports or leisurely walks away from the hustle and bustle of the city. There are also barbecue areas around, providing space for families to enjoy leisure activities.
Tokyo Waterfront Disaster Prevention Park is a charming park where you can learn about the importance of disaster prevention while enjoying the blessings of nature. It has two aspects: disaster prevention and relaxation, making it a truly unique park in Tokyo.
