Koizumi Yakumo Memorial Park

park This park is just across the monument of Ôkubo residence. As you see in the photos on the right, this park is conscious of the Greek style.
People from so many countries live around here, so many languages can be heard in this park. The thing fits so much for this park, memorial to a cosmopolitan who lived here a hundred years ago.
There is a bust of Hearn presented from Greece, and replica of the monuments of Hearn's house in Dublin, Ireland.
This park is open from 9 am to 6 pm (5 pm in Saturdays, Sundays and holidays).

Access from Tokyo Station
map
Use Yamanote Line clockwise way (lane No. 5) to go to Shin-Ôkubo station.
Go down the road in front of the station exit to the right. Turn right at the first or the second corner after you find the bus stop "Ôkubo 2-chôme". The path from the first corner leads to the side gate, and the road from the second corner to the front one.
By the way, the Greek style house close to both gates is the lavatory.
