What makes this place special?
At a Glance
Hamarikyu Gardens is a former shogunal garden where a tidal pond brings Tokyo Bay into a landscaped retreat.
In Chuo, paths lead around water, planted scenery and two historic duck-hunting grounds. The seawater pond changes with the tides, giving the garden a different character from an inland pond garden. Explore the landscape at your own pace; teahouse visits and special evening programmes have their own arrangements.

Know before you go
Normal last entry is 16:30. On October 30 to November 3, 2026, opening extends to 21:00 with last entry at 20:30; after 17:00 use Otemon, as Naka-no-gomon closes and some areas are restricted. No separate night ticket or advance booking is required; bad weather may cancel the event. School-group fee exemptions are a separate application, not a general booking deadline.
