Koshigaya Park was officially opened in 1985 as part of a sister city relationship between Campbelltown and Koshigaya City in Japan. The park was designed to celebrate and showcase Japanese culture, particularly through its traditional garden features and design elements.
The park's centerpiece is its meticulously crafted Japanese garden, featuring elements such as cherry blossom trees, a koi pond, wooden bridges, lanterns, and pagodas. These elements are designed to evoke a sense of tranquility and harmony, typical of traditional Japanese gardens.
Beyond the garden, Koshigaya Park serves as a venue for cultural events, educational programs, and community gatherings that promote cross-cultural understanding between Australia and Japan.
The park is named after Koshigaya City in Japan, which is Campbelltown's sister city. Sister city relationships like this aim to foster international goodwill and cultural exchange between two cities. The name "Koshigaya" itself has historical significance in Japan, referring to a city with a rich cultural heritage and community spirit.

This is a really nice park area during the day. Lots of groups about and playing semi-organised games of volleyball. the lighting looks pretty poor for night time, so I don't know how safe id feel here, but a great spot.

My daughter and I have been playing here for many of years now, it's nice for kids to meet other kids to play and you can see from every angle so you know you won't lose your kiddy in the crowd, which is always ideal lol.

A lovely park right opposite of the library.
The toilets are very dirty though and there was no soap.

Some equipment in the playground was locked or not working.
Regular maintenance would make this park a 5 star park.

History preserved by volunteers, gorgeous property
It's a high place from where you can see residential around. It's not the typical lookout where views are stunning.
We planned to have our lunch there, but the bench top had vulgar scribbling on. Embarrassing.

I popped down to the Q Street market on Lithgow Street and found the old house was open for visitors to walk through. I have to admit I have lived in the area for years and had never visited. The house was beautiful and the volunteer staff full of knowledge and very welcoming. The garden area at the back of the house was a peaceful oasis. If you are in the area on one of the open days take the time to enjoy this lovely old building

This place is big enough for you to sit in your own spot without people too close. It's dog friendly and has a couple of picnic tables (not many though). Great area for picnics with a nice view. It's accessible at all times, just park on the street instead of the park's carpark, which closes overnight. There are bins provided for rubbish and enough trees for shade. Nice and peaceful :)

Our car club were warmly welcomed by the volunteers where we displayed our cars in the grounds. The Devonshire tea was exceptional and the tour very interesting.

Went here to attend the Chill Festival held each year. Great park with amble car parking, tasty food trucks and rides. A great day out for young and old.

Chill Fest 2023 was not worth the trip as the festival was one hour away from my place.
I would recommended only for kids. The rides wasn’t good enough for adults. However, there were winter vibe and was clean.

Really pretty at night (my video doesn’t do justice lol). You can see the Sydney CBD skyline. If you come here at night, the rangers come by 7PM to close the park gates (don’t worry if you’re still inside, a human can literally go around the gates, cars won’t be able to tho). The off-street parking is also just a 2 minute walk so just park outside.

We went here to do astrophotography and it was beautiful and clear.

No toilets tho

What a fantastic piece of history located in the heart of Campbelltown,
there is no cost to enter.
Wander the rooms of the home and dream of days gone by, bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the grounds of this beautiful homestead.

Beautiful and well maintained. Great play area for kids including wheelchair swing. Lots of undercover tables and chairs as well as lovely shady trees to picnic under. Bathrooms are clean enough but do not have soap so make sure to bring sanitiser. There is a water refill station which is handy and lots of open grassy areas. I like that there is a no ball games area to ensure picnics are undisturbed. There are barbecue facilities too.

Clean and well kept but can't really see much due to the trees. I did like the park and the grass however.

Its a good little park, always green and charming. I have seen NYE fireworks there a couple of time.

A lot of swings and slides for kids. Park is very well maintained with lush green grass all around the year. Plenty of parking around and good things is, a lot of restaurants around.
