The park is situated on land formerly associated with the Harada House, a National Historic Landmark in Riverside that played a pivotal role in the 1918 Alien Land Law legal battle.
The park provides panoramic views of the Santa Ana Mountains, particularly visible during clear mornings.
It serves as a primary hub for the Norco/Corona regional youth sports circuit, hosting hundreds of athletes on weekends.
The skate park section was specifically designed to accommodate both street-style skating and bowl transitions.
Harada Heritage Park is a 24-acre municipal facility located on the border of Norco and Corona, California. The park features a dedicated skate park equipped with concrete bowls, rails, and ramps suitable for various skill levels. It offers multiple multi-purpose sports fields used primarily for local youth soccer and baseball leagues. The site includes a modern playground area with structures designed for diverse age groups. Paved walking paths encircle the perimeter of the athletic fields, providing space for exercise. The park is named in honor of the Harada family, who were notable figures in local history regarding civil rights and land ownership. On-site facilities include restroom blocks, drinking fountains, and picnic tables situated near the sports courts. The landscape design emphasizes open lawn spaces for community events and general recreation.
