Kitanomaru park in Chiyoda ward is very calm and green. It was opened to the public in 1969. The park was a part of Edo Castle, aka Chiyoda Castle, residence of shogun and location of the shogunate.
There are two gates from Edo Castle. We entered the gate called Shimizu-mon ("pure water gate").
Kitanomaru park is also home to the Nippon Budokan.
