Getting there From JR Tachikawa Station’s north exit, check your chosen gate; access differs by entrance.
Outdoor artworks are spread through streets north of the station. Explore the works and surrounding streets without blocking pedestrians, and respect artwork notices and private building areas.
Getting there Use the public walking areas near JR Tachikawa Station’s north exit.
Tokyo udo is a Tachikawa specialty vegetable, known for white stems grown in dark underground chambers. Check season and availability; growing chambers are not open for unarranged visits.
