Keisei Rose Garden in Chiba is seriously a rose paradise! Imagine over 1,600 different types of roses, like, 10,000 plants, all blooming their hearts out. It's huge, spread out, and smells amazing. They've got these cool arches and trellises overflowing with flowers, and even a greenhouse.
It's definitely worth visiting, especially in late April to early June or early October to late November when they're in peak bloom. They sometimes have events like Alice in Wonderland themes, which is super cute. There's a cafe and shop too, so you can grab some rose-themed goodies or even plants to take home. It's a bit of a trek from Tokyo, but totally worth it for the sheer beauty and fragrance!

I enjoyed my trip for their strawberry picking event. I don’t speak Japanese well so I was glad to see how kind and supportive the staff were in assisting a non-Japanese speaker like myself. I enjoyed picking many strawberries and tasting different varieties! These strawberries were the most delicious I’ve ever eaten. You can even take them home 😀
