Ike Sun Park is a relatively new park located roughly midway between Otsuka and Ikebukuro stations.
Opened in summer, 2020, the park is a great location for the kids to run around—although the grass is often fenced off to allow regrowth.
The park is also the venue for a number of food trucks and a permanent café called “Eat Good Place”.
