A Stroll Through Maruyama Park – Kyoto’s Peaceful Garden

#summervacay Maruyama Park in Kyoto is a calm and lovely place to walk, especially during cherry blossom season. The wide paths, shaded by old trees, lead you past quiet ponds, stone lanterns, and the famous weeping cherry tree that glows beautifully at night in spring. Even outside of sakura season, the park is peaceful perfect for relaxing or simply watching the koi swim. Just steps from Yasaka Shrine, it’s a spot where nature and tradition meet in a gentle, refreshing way.
