Moerenuma Park is a large-scale public park in Sapporo, Japan, designed by the renowned sculptor Isamu Noguchi. Spanning over an area of 188 hectares, it was completed in 2005 and has since been a marvel of contemporary park design integrating art, architecture, and landscape. The park was built on the site of a former waste treatment plant and is a testament to innovative urban ecological design, transforming the space into a blend of nature and artistry. Featured attractions include the Sea Fountain, Play Mountain, and the Glass Pyramid 'Hidamari,' which serves as a multi-purpose space with a gallery, restaurant, and shop. The park's design facilitates various seasonal activities, from cross-country skiing in winter to paddling in the summer. Moerenuma Park reflects Noguchi's belief in the social roles of sculpture and parks, embodying his concept of 'the sculpture of the earth.' It offers an immersive experience where visitors can engage with the landscape through its artistic features and natural beauty.
