You can really feel the atmosphere of the Edo period here. It's like escaping the present and becoming a time traveler.

Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden
Shinjuku Gyoen once stood as an estate of the Naito family, the hereditary vassals of the Tokugawa family in the Edo period before being established as an imperial garden in 1906.
The cherry blossoms at Shinjuku Gyoen are absolutely breathtaking. Whether you're having a picnic on the green lawn or strolling through the cherry blossom tunnels, it feels like stepping into a dream world.

Kameya Honpo
Nearby Shibamata Taishakuten, you’ll find Kameya Hompo, a famous shop selling Dango, or flavored rice dumplings. It was a model for the Dango shop of Tora-san, the main character in the movie, “The Otoko wa tsurai yo (It’s Tough Being a Man)”.
They have a lot of different dango flavors, and the staff are super friendly.

Funabashi H.C. Andersen Park
This green park adorned with seasonal flowers was named after Andersen, who is from Odense, Denmark, a sister city of Funabashi City. Visited by 800,000 people a year, it is the prefecture’s prominent theme park. The vast 38.3ha (95 acres)-grounds are divided into zones for different attractions.
It's a great place to bring kids—so much fun that you can easily spend the whole day here. Some attractions are fun for adults too. The only downside is that getting here isn't very convenient.
