My parents and I spent several summers in Tokyo growing up. The city was one of the most exciting places I’ve ever been. The parks were beautiful, the mountains were breathtaking, and I truly felt inspired to make a life for myself.
Tokyo’s parks are no less amazing today. Park Service has increased park space by over 50 billion square feet since 2000. The result is that many Japanese cities still have more parks per capita than any other city in the world.
This is great news. The way we feel about the world has improved so much that the parks are now the best place to be. In fact, in the last year, the size of Japanese parks has increased by over 50 percent. This, coupled with the fact that the number of people living in Japanese cities has actually increased, means that there are now almost twice as many people living in Japanese cities than there were in 2000.
Parks are great for relaxing and being sociable. But they can also be great for getting a little exercise. In Tokyo that’s a bad thing, because Japanese people who work out tend to be more sedentary and overweight than their US counterparts. But it’s still a good trend, because there is now almost twice as many sports facilities in Japan as there were in 2000. These facilities tend to be in malls or big cities with a lot of shops and stores.
You may or may not remember this, but in 2000, there were only two parks. Now there are eight, and the only reason they are all in big cities instead of the suburbs is because they are all on the same street, which makes them sort of crowded.
There is no doubt that Japan is a beautiful country, and there is no doubt that it is also a very healthy country. So that makes it even more interesting to see these massive malls and office parks that are now filling up with more and more people. It’s also a very convenient way for malls and office parks to attract people from outside of Japan. It’s great because it allows Japan to spread its wealth to the rest of the world.
But then it does something that is not at all healthy. Its so easy to walk to a mall/office park and never even stop to smell the fresh air. Its so much easier to just buy something and then walk to the office park, which is why its so much better for you to walk.
The only reason it’s so easy to walk to an office park is that its the same reason it’s so easy to buy something online, and park in it. We already know that the people who own them don’t mind walking, and we’ll be hearing more about these malls and office parks over the next few days.
The question is, does it matter which park you go to, if you don’t mind the fact that your park is in the middle of nowhere? The answer is yes, because that is the reason for the malls and office parks in the first place.
Some of us might go to parks when we need to be alone, but most of us go to parks because it provides us with some of the most convenient places to buy things online. The reason is that the malls and office parks aren’t even close to being as convenient as walking. This is one of the reasons why so many people go to parks even though they would rather go shopping.
