Kyoto Park

The lush bloom of Japanese sakura impresses with its beauty. Everyone who has the chance to visit Kyiv should see this spectacle in Kyoto Park.

The park was founded in 1972 to mark the beginning of friendly relations between the Japanese city of Kyoto and Kyiv. When designing the garden, the architects tried to recreate Japanese symbolism. That is why there is a lot of stone here: a cave-like stone, a guardian stone, a moon-shadow stone, and others.
