Recognized as one of Japan’s top 100 cherry blossom spots, this park is famous for its "Yae-zakura" (double-layered cherry blossoms). These bloom later than the common varieties, appearing as fluffy pink pom-poms that cover the trees in late April. With its spacious lawns and nighttime illuminations, it is a perfect place to enjoy the Japanese spring at a more relaxed pace.
