Tokyo's Hydrangea Sanctuary Right in the City!

Japan offers a variety of seasonal flowers throughout the year, and in just a month, the rainy season of June will arrive. This immediately brings to mind the June-exclusive hydrangeas (also known as ajisai). Popular spots for viewing these beautiful flowers in Tokyo and its surrounding areas include Kamakura's Meigetsu-in Temple, Hakusan Shrine, and Asukayama Park. Among these, Asukayama Park stands out for its spectacular blooms, convenient location, and relatively fewer tourists, making it a hidden gem right in the city. Asukayama Park is located near the Keikyu "Oji" Station. After getting off the train, it's just a short walk to the hydrangea-filled Asuka Path. Strolling along the path while taking photos and admiring the flowers is truly a romantic and relaxing experience. 📍Address: Asukayama Park
