This is one of the most underrated and (thankfully) undervisited parks in Seattle. Mt. Fuji cherry trees, the Yukimidoro stone lantern and a view of Mt. Rainier to the south all make this park a tranquil and serene place to sit, walk or think. The lantern and the cherry trees were both a gift of Seattles sister city- Kobe, Japan. What makes it even more unique and special is the fact that this meditative beauty runs alongside the almost always congested freeway. Check it out, and I promise you wont be disappointed. :)

Love this beautiful park. So much to look at. Very special Seattle park

A good place to see Japanese cherry blossoms in spring.

Kobe Terrace is a fantastic place to view the blossoming cherry trees gifted to Seattle by Seattles sister city Kobe, Japan. While you are there, you can also take a peek around at the neighborhood community garden. Note that while most areas of this small park have paved ramped walk ways, the descent into the community garden is a little steep. I give 4 out 5 stars for this tucked away park as I find its design limits visibility.

Seems like the city has forgotten this time park is theirs, too! The park needs serious attention, garbage all over the place. Very dirty and unsafe for kids since uncapped needles are exposed throughout the place. The only good side of it is the south view. Old buildings of DT and Jose Rizel bridge in one frame.

Has some promise but seems mostly like a homeless camp. Freeway noise on the east and trees on the west limit the views.

Oh this spot is heaven on earth, great for picnic, date, view of the city, and explore the community garden...

Homeless everywhere and smells like human poop and pee needs to be cleaned up cuye chicken tho!

Ok park, but not as nice as the 2 Seattle sister city markers in Kobe.

Such an amazing little space beauty, handiwork, trees, gardens, and homeless all fit into this little space without much tension. I was comfortable walking, senior residents were walking, but others are clearly uncomfortable and with good reason for caution and to stay alert with closeness to potential danger from transients and drugs.

Nice spot for me to think about what the hell is going on with...

Its beautiful, especially in the summer but be catious with your kids there because of the area. .... Its not the worst area but there Is alot if drug use and camping by there

Beautiful.

Its wonderful if you can miss the junkie times. Under renovation so, maybe late summer it will be the happy zen place again.

Peaceful and quiet!!

I lived in Seattle for 14 years without realizing this park was here. Its maintained well and I enjoy walking through here instead of taking other routes.

Beautiful hidden park. Quiet and nice views of International District in a natural setting

Cool park built in the early 1900s in a Japanese garden style.

Such a beautiful and peaceful nook in the heart of the industrial sky line and what a great place to just chill and focus on your inner peace...

Can be very Scary at night... Watch out for unstable or confused people who may Rob or attack you without warning

Great park with amazing views of Seattle. Has a great community pea patch. Not to many campers so its nice for kids. Only been yelled at once. Not bad for a Seattle park!

This is a very beautiful place but it could be so much better if they would take better care of the area great scenery great place for a walk.

Nice park! Plenty of freeway noise but also lots of trees and benches. Decent urban getaway.

Very pretty when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, even more awesome when a breeze blows the flower petals around. The view of SODO is also quite nice. Kind of hard to ignore the unkempt that hang around though.

Really cute, small park and is perfect to escape to after walking around the International discrict and getting some sushi. It’s just a great way to end a day of walking around and exploring!

Parking access.Terrace has been allowed to become run down.City council a little too busy with other demands.

The food took a long time to get to us. And my girlfriends food was not really very good at all. The soda was not even close to good and I mean how do you screw up a coke.

Its an interesting park, connected to the Danny Woo Community Gardens. Its on a hill with some interesting nooks here and there. A slight hum of noise from I-5, but otherwise it can be a peaceful place to relax in the shade.

Absolutely terrible. My family is from Kobe and they wished this park didnt had the name Kobe in it. They need major renovation

What is this? Maybe I parked close by for an interview @international community health center???

Test message to yourself. No test present

Too many homeless around and in the park

Real nice

Went to this park on a Thursday morning, was very disappointed. Perhaps we went in the wrong season. Things looked pretty unkempt and after encountering a couple different homeless groups that had camps there, we left. Never made it anywhere with good views.

Beautifully kept garden. I was impressed

This place is seriously dangerous. Open drug use and discarded needles everywhere. I had to walk my dogs here for a year. It was a nightmare.

A community garden on a road amidst a historically significant part of Seattle, right near the original site of Uwajimaya and the Panama Hotel.(Sometimes can have some messes homeless camping about.)

Beautiful oasis! ️

Nicely secluded in the heart of the international district. I wish someone could take a bit more care.

It was wet and muddy, but the park was clean and there was a lot to look at. Pretty cool seeing a 200 year old lantern that weighs 400 tons.

Were Im I going with this thought

Really private in spots

Its nice here

Homeless people all over that place

Full of needles, junkies, broken crack pipes, feces, and tons of homeless camping.

The first thing we saw was a bum steeped in his own urine. The next thing was a man who walked by us and yelled at me Its your fault. Then he turned around and started to follow us. Very scary place and not somewhere to go in Seattle.

Needles, drug addicts, human waste....what happened to Seattle?

Beautiful views of Seattle and a calm environment.

Very nice little refuge in the heart of the city.

Great experience!

Lot of bum pee, lot of manure for the gardens. Other than that, pretty views.

Good place

There is nothing to see here. Its just a waste of time to stop by this place.

Bit too close to the highway for a park to be nice

Nice

Great Park

Should be a great park. Shameful that it is used as a campground.

A wonderful alternative view of Seattle.

Community garden here and a nice place to walk through if in the area, noise from traffic honking when i went was distracting, but good that there is green space like this in the city

Not sure about after dark

Garden in the middle of the City

Nice little park.

Boring

Lots of homeless

Dope cause it has Kobe in its name

Full of trash, needles, junkies, drunks.

A hidden gem in the International District.
