Tetsugaku-dō Park (Tetsugaku-dō Kōen) ("Park of the Philosophy Shrine" or "Temple Garden of Philosophy") is a public park in Tokyo, Japan. Most of the park is in Nakano Ward, while approximately 7% (at the south-eastern edge) is in Shinjuku Ward. It was created successively during the years 1904 to 1919 by the philosopher and founder of Toyo University, Inoue Enryō.
