Key takeaways
On weekday afternoons, the atmosphere is relatively calm, dominated by local residents out for a walk and small numbers of visitors. On weekend afternoons — especially during cherry blossom season and fall foliage season — crowds surge, and foot traffic through this narrow linear park slows dramatically.
