A first stop for our day trip here at Asahikawa, to this ranked Top 100 Most Beautiful City Parks. Tokiwa Park in Asahikawa envelops visitors with its spacious and serenity. WE have entered near the pond and can definitely sense the calm feeling. Willows along the shore dip their drooping branches into the stillness of the water. The water is not too murky and we can see fishes (koi?) swimming in the shallows. There are also ducks gliding above them along the surface, not to mention the birds chirping away..
At one corner there is the Stature of Michitoshi and the Kamikawa shrine build on a small enclosed 'island' within the pond. Walk the tree-lined paths and admire various sculptures throughout the park creating the appearance and functionality of an open-air art museum. And the Hokkaido Asahikawa Museum of Art, is just within the park, but we did not go..
We have been through other similarly sized Japanese Koen but Toiwa offers the spacious and tranquility unlike others. From here we just walked over to Asahi Bridge which is just within minutes.

It takes around 20min walking to reach the little park. There are many small paths, a little stream, a mini waterfall and a pond. You can also rent a boat if you feel like it. There are a few toilets, countless benches and of course vending machines. It's great to stroll around and relax after a busy day.

The park was right in the heart of Asahikawa, about 10-15 minutes from the JR station. Even though it was quite small but beautiful with cherry trees, a lake, and even a small shrine. A nice place to sit back and relax.

Nice place for a walk. There's a pond, we rented a boat and had a romantic hour watching the beautiful park during sunset.

Great park to stroll through, there are art exhibits a lake with fountains and lots of wildlife, I enjoyed this park as it offered a break from our busy sightseeing schedule, we walked leisurely through and took in the beautiful trees, the little stream with koi carp and peacefulness. I think there would have been many a picnic had here, I think the kids would enjoy it too.

It was so heavily raining that JR to Furano suspended on 5 Jul 2018. As a result, the writer took a tour in Asahikawa. The writer walked to this park by about 8 minutes from Asahikawa JR station. This park was quiet and beautiful with swimming pool, garden and pool.

I visited the park in the late afternoon on 6 October 2019 (Sunday). It is generally a family friendly park, as there were small groups of families and individuals who were at the park doing a stroll, rowing a boat at the lake or simply walking their pets around the park, all giving a relaxed feel to the area.
It is not a big area so it can be covered easily under an hour. But in the early autumn season under the late afternoon sun, the park has several ideal photo taking spots.
I was not familiar with the public transport to get to the park, so instead took a walk from Asahikawa train station. The leisure walk to the park entrance via the Heiwa Street shopping park took around 20 minutes.

I was born and brought up in this town, and spent a lot of time in the park until I was a high school student. This is a fountain of philosophical thought and contemplation of life of Asahikawa citizen. Decades ago, the park was an isolated island in Ishikari River and the park pond was the remnant of a segment of the river.. The history of the city may tell you something in tranquility.

The park is not really hidden but the the vegetation insulated us from the city. It was a very peaceful stroll through park though it was a very cold morning. Would really like to come back in spring or summer to see the flowers.

The snow was thick but a pathway had been carved through the snow so you could still walk around. The pond was frozen so it was a beautiful winter wonderland.
