On the southern side of the thicket, the Tamagawa Aqueduct flows toward the southeast, and further south is the “western park” area.
With regard to city boundaries, the Inokashira Pond section of the Kanda River in the park, Inokashira-kōen Station, and the West and East gardens are in Mitaka.
In the southeast of the park is Inokashira-kōen Station, on the Keio Inokashira Line, which runs parallel to the Kanda River.
The distance from the station to the pond is very short, and there are small paths and open spaces between them which visitors can wander through.
[citation needed] Spring in Inokashira Park is the season of the blooming cherry trees that line the pond.
On the north side of the plum grove, on the edge of the pond, there is a spring, but its flow is nowadays weak.
The park has a petting zoo and a small aquarium, and is a place where vendors, musicians, artists and street performers gather.
