Aventure en plein air entre Tokyo et Osaka

飛木稲荷神社

Stay ~2h

Oshiage Station

A small Inari shrine in the back streets behind Oshiage, held together by its sacred ginkgo — the oldest tree in Sumida ward at over 500 years, and the source of the name: a branch carried off in a storm is said to have lodged in the ground here and grown. The trunk was burnt black in the 1945 firebombing and leafed out again, which is why locals still come to it. | Pépite locale : Many travelers overlook this shrine due to its location in a less touristy part of Tokyo. (Local transit from hotel)

隅田公園

Stay ~2h

Asakusa Station

Sumida Park runs along both banks of the Sumida River in eastern Tokyo, with walking paths, open green space and views across the water to Tokyo Skytree. Its cherry trees line the embankment on both sides and bloom in late March and early April. | Pépite locale : Despite its beauty, many tourists flock to more famous parks like Ueno, overlooking this serene location. (Transfert inter-villes : Shinkansen Tokyo → Odawara (1h 5m) (65 min) | Check-in nouvel hôtel)

代々木公園

Stay ~1h 30m

Harajuku Station (JR Yamanote)

One of Tokyo's largest city parks, a flat expanse of lawn, zelkova groves and cycling paths in Shibuya, laid out on the ground that held the 1964 Olympic Village. A fountain axis runs down its centre with the Shinjuku towers standing behind the trees, and the lawns fill on weekends with picnickers, buskers, drum circles and dog walkers. | Pépite locale : It is a mainstream city park rather than a find, but almost everyone who comes here is heading somewhere else first, and the quieter northern groves stay empty even on a busy Sunday. (Local transit from hotel)

神泉地区

Stay ~2h

Shinsen Station

Shinsen District is a charming neighborhood known for its traditional architecture and quiet streets. It offers a glimpse into the historical side of Tokyo, away from the bustling tourist spots. | Pépite locale : Many travelers overlook this area in favor of more famous districts like Shibuya and Shinjuku.
