📍 Discover Makuhari, Chiba – Where Towers Meet Gardens by the Sea 🌿🌊
Only 45 minutes from Tokyo, Makuhari blends futuristic skyscrapers, pedestrian malls, and serene parks into one of the most livable urban areas near the capital.

Hello Walkers,
today I’m exploring Makuhari, one of Chiba’s most fascinating districts, where futuristic towers meet peaceful green spaces by the bay. Starting from Kaihimmakuhari Station, the walk passes through wide boulevards and hidden pedestrian paths designed as urban gardens, such as Messe Mall (メッセモール) and Friendship Square (友好広場).

As we leave the skyscrapers behind, the atmosphere shifts into tree-lined streets leading to Shoraitei Garden (見浜園 茶室松籟亭, exterior only) and finally the vast Makuhari Seaside Park (千葉県立幕張海浜公園). The route concludes in the calm of A Block, a quiet corner of the park where the city fades into sea breeze and open skies.

✔️ Start at Kaihimmakuhari Station 🚉
✔️ Explore modern towers & corporate plazas 🏢
✔️ Stroll through Messe Mall & Friendship Square 🌿
