Lucky Park in Koriyama
Based on a partnership agreement between Fukushima Prefecture and The Pokémon Company, a park based on the Fukushima support Pokémon "Lucky", called "Lucky Park in Kooriyamashi", has opened in Kaiseizan Park.
In addition to the 6m giant Lucky, there are also pink Pokémon characters on the swings, see-saws and other playground equipment for children, so you can take lots of cute photos♪
There is also a rose garden which can be enjoyed twice a year, as well as a baseball field and athletic fields, making it a symbolic park for the locals and a popular destination for tourists and families.
