Mito Plum Festival

One of Japan's three great gardens, Kairakuen, has been hosting the Plum Festival since February 11. Thanks to the warmth of March, the plum blossoms are nearly in full bloom. Many people have also visited Senba Lake and Senba Park, which are adjacent to Kairakuen. The plum blossoms have a very pleasant fragrance, making you feel that spring is just around the corner. Although it snowed on March 3, it seems that the scenic beauty could still be enjoyed. Since Senba Lake has a circumference of 3 km, it might be nice to take a walk around it.
