A noticeable trend has been observed among Japan's youth: they are increasingly gathering at Miyashita Park, a multi-purpose urban park in Tokyo. For some reason, this park, adorned with numerous facilities, has become a go-to spot for the young generation, symbolizing the youth culture of the Reiwa era. The report seeks to delve into why this location is so appealing to Japan's younger generation.

With Japan's society characterised by its emphasis on conformity and tradition, the gathering of youth at Miyashita Park could be seen as a development in Japan's youth culture, reflecting changing values and aspirations of the youth in the Reiwa era. Miyashita Park, blending nature with commercial facilities, reflects Japan's strive for balanced urbanization, a topic that carries both social and political weight in the country.

In the US, Europe, or other western countries, socializing in urban parks is nothing new. However, the context changes from country to country, with variables such as cultural practices, societal norms, urbanization, and safety measures playing important roles.
