Gindoro is a silvery white tree with white undersides of the leaves. This park is the former site of Hanamaki Agricultural School, where Kenji was a teacher, and many gingko trees, which Kenji loved, are planted there. Inside the park, there is a poem monument inscribed with a line from Kenji's ``Early Spring,'' and there is also a group of stone statues of ``Kaze no Matasaburo'' (a work that won the first Outdoor Sculpture Award by Sapporo poet Arata Hongo). Many Kenji fans come here.
