This place is really beautiful in the spring because there’s a wide area to visit and see sakura in here. Such a stunning place I have been. This park has a large parking area for a fair price.
I visited this park by renting a bicycle by Hello Cycle. It is a huge park. There were many families pitching a tent for a picnic at the lawn. There was a museum about traditional buildings, but I didn't have time to drop by.
There are plenty of nice spots to have a picnic here especially during the spring. There are several types of cherry trees in the park, including those that bloom later in the season. I love biking over and lying on the thick green grass once spring comes. A few short bikes trails as well.
