The Institute for Nature Study 国立科学博物館 附属自然教育園

5-21-5 Shirokanedai, Minato City, Tokyo

A beautiful green space for relaxation and education

The Institute for Nature Study is far greener than its name may suggest. You can enjoy a wide variety of flora and fauna, whatever the season.
What began as a grand house in the Edo period has now been opened to the public. Not only can you relax and unwind, but you can learn about the wide variety of wildlife and greenery from the information boards dotted around the park.
