Tetsugaku-dō Park
Tetsugaku-dō Park (哲学堂公園, Tetsugaku-dō Kōen) ("Park of the Philosophy Shrine" or "Temple Garden of Philosophy") is a public park in Tokyo, Japan. Most of the park is in Nakano Ward, while approximately 7% (at the south-eastern edge) is in Shinjuku Ward.[1] It was created successively during the years 1904 to 1919 by the philosopher and founder of Toyo University, Inoue Enryō. Inoue thought of this philosophical theme park as a place for mental cultivation.
