Senzoku Pond Park beside Nakahara-kaido and Senzokuike Station on the Tokyu Ikegami Line, with the quiet homes of Minami-Senzoku and Higashi-Yukigaya around the pond
Step out of Senzokuike Station and across Nakahara-kaido, right in front of you is a whole stretch of pond. By the pond's edge there are wooden bridges, a water plants garden and a rowing area, and in spring it's one of Tokyo's famous cherry blossom viewing spots. On the other side of the station is a residential neighbourhood, and the pond's spring water flows along a small stream called the Senzoku Nagare, with cherry blossoms planted on both banks too.
Greenery ranks 17th among Tokyo's 155 neighbourhoods, making it the strongest point for this area. In our street view photos, cleanliness ranks 34th, so the streets are quite clean. The Ikegami Line gets you to Gotanda in about 10 minutes, then you can connect to the Yamanote Line and reach Shinagawa in about 22 minutes. Ducking under the Ikegami Line railway bridge from the south side of the station brings you to the Family Road Senzokuike shopping street, with a small supermarket open until midnight and a fishmonger and deli still in business.
The Ikegami Line is all local stops—there are no express trains. Healthcare and pharmacies rank 141st out of 155 neighbourhoods, making this the weakest point for the area. Daily convenience ranks 132nd. The station itself is at about 21 metres elevation, with even higher ground around it, so you'll be going up and down as you walk. In our street view photos, buildings rank 141st.
According to local legend, Nichiren stopped by the pond to wash his feet on his way from Mount Minobu to Hitachi to recuperate, and that is how the local name Senzoku, originally written with characters meaning "a thousand bundles," also came to be written with the characters for "washing feet". Senzokuike Station itself was opened in 1927 by the Ikegami Electric Railway. Katsu Kaishu loved this place in his later years and from 1892 built a villa called Senzoku-ken beside the pond. After his death in 1899 he was buried by the pond, and his and his wife's graves now rest in Senzokuike Park in Minami-Senzoku 2-chome, designated as a cultural property by Ota Ward.
