Sugar King Park

Sugar baron statue and toy locomotive in Garapan

Address: Downtown Garapan park, across from the NMI Museum

The park is named for Matsue Haruji, the man who turned Saipan into a sugar island under Japanese rule. His statue stands on the lawn, with a small locomotive of the kind that hauled cane parked to one side. A peace bell sits in the grounds too. It is a short stop, best paired with the museum across the road for about an hour on foot.
