More from Takamori Higashi Koen

 Tucked away in one corner of the park there is a children's play area.

 This is something that is almost never seen in Japan, a public basketball court. Kids do not hang around outdoors here. They have school and then school clubs or prep school until nearly dark. Then they have lots of homework. Just looking at the court makes it obvious that people here do not play much basketball. The court is round.

 This is an outside wall of the public restroom. I was surprised by the triple projects and the way the plane of the wall has been broken up.

 Some of the flowers were in full bloom.

 At one corner of the park there are electric meters but the cable goes underground so I could not determine what was using the electricity. I guess that it must be lights in the restroom but I could not see any.
