Muramatsu Park And Tulip Fields In Niigata - Come View The Blooms!
Muramatsu Park, one of Japan’s top 100 cherry blossom spots, is located in Gosen in Niigata prefecture. There is also a tulip field that stretches far and wide in Gosen. Why not experience Japan’s spring at these two places?
Tulip Fields With 1.5 Million Tulips!
You’ll also be able to enjoy tulips in Gosen during the middle to the end of April by driving 20 minutes from Muramatsu Park. If the cherry blossom season has already passed, then how about experience spring at a tulip field?
Tulip fields will stretch as far as the eyes can see once you park your car and walk along the road. The sight of 1,500,000 tulips stretching far and wide in a vast land of three hectares is stunning.
Couples take photos while children run about, each spending the time in their favorite ways. Taro, a root vegetable and local specialty of Gosen, are used to make taro soup and taro steamed buns, which are then sold during event periods. For information on these events, please be sure to check Gosen’s website (Japanese) beforehand before traveling to the fields.
The beginning to middle of April are the best times to see the cherry blossoms while the middle to end of April are the best times for tulips. For those who have missed Japan’s spring in Tokyo or Western Japan and those that don’t think they’ll make it in time for the full bloom schedule-wise, how about going further to Niigata to experience spring in Japan?
