A haven for workers who are employed at the glass forest of Nishi-Shinjuku (the Skyscraper District) is Shinjuku Central Park. Within the nearly 22 acres are an athletic section, playground, this 100 foot wide waterfall plus walkways for strolling among 80,000 trees. During mid-afternoon, people come here to eat their bento lunch (single portion take out) before heading back to work. On the east side of Shinjuku Ward is the more famous Shinjuku Gyoen National Park.
