Nokonoshima Island Park

Fukuoka's famous large flower garden has a variety of flowers to enjoy in every season, almost all year round. It is located on a hill in the center of Nokonoshima Island, just a 10-minute ferry ride from the coast. The island was opened in April 1969 by Mr. Kubota, who was a farmer. At that time, he was only 19 years old. At that time, Mr. Kubota thought farming in the city, which was changing into an industrial era, was very challenging. However, he isolated himself and planted a flower garden on the island, and began his life as a flower farmer on the island. Recommended cherry blossom season is around the end of March to the beginning of April.
