Quite spacious park opposite of the Machida Squirrel Garden. Nice place to take a stroll sniff some Japanese culture.

TIP: Combine your stroll though Yukushiike Park with a visit to the Machida Squirrel Garden.
PERSONAL THOUGHTS:
There was construction going on when I visited (2015), so the pond was completely empty. That was unfortunate. But in all it was pretty park, quite specious. Found lots of plants, some old Japanese structures, a temple and some sort of peace monument. Since it was autumn we didn't get to see much of the flowers that'll probably blossom really beautifully during spring, but we did get to see some shades of red, yellow and brown. Those were really pretty too. As it was a rainy day, there weren't too many people, but I suspect this park draws plenty of people on a sunny day. If you're in the area it's most definitely worth checking out.
