Moerenuma Park

A Perfect Harmony of Art and Nature – Designed by Isamu Noguchi

Moerenuma Park in Sapporo is a magnificent art park created by world-famous sculptor Isamu Noguchi. The entire park is considered his final masterpiece. Built on a former waste disposal site, it was transformed over About 23 years into a vast green space that now stands as a symbol of environmental renewal, featuring eco-friendly systems that use natural energy.

Spanning 189 hectares—About the size of 40 Tokyo Domes—the park offers wide-open landscapes filled with geometric hills, fountains, sculptures, and creative playgrounds. Each season brings a unique experience:

Spring: Enjoy the beautiful cherry blossoms in full bloom.

Summer: Children love Moere Beach, a popular water play area.

Autumn: The park is painted in vibrant autumn colors.

Winter: Visitors can enjoy cross-country skiing and sledding.

The park’s iconic symbol is the Glass Pyramid "HIDAMARI", which changes its appearance throughout the day and seasons as it reflects the surrounding scenery. Inside, visitors can explore an art gallery featuring Noguchi’s life and work, a shop with exclusive items, and a French restaurant that serves dishes made with fresh Hokkaido ingredients.

Other highlights include Mt. Moere, a white pathway leading to the top of a geometric hill with panoramic views, and the Sea Fountain, a powerful and artistic water display. Every corner of Moerenuma Park feels like walking through an open-air museum, offering countless photo opportunities.

Rental bicycles are available, making it easy to explore the park at your own pace while fully enjoying the beautiful fusion of art and nature.
