Kamifurano Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Huge Flower Mountain

We come here on end of June , Some tour buses but the layout of the farm makes it not crowded. No fee to enter or park. Big free parking zone with toilets nearby. One of our favorites flower farms in Furano, neat & clean. The farm overlooks the valley & mountain range in the distance, stunning sceneries. There is workshop to make pillow etc. A souvenir shop & melon, snacks & ice cream are sold at cafeteria. Many wedding couples have their shootings during our visit, highly recommended to visit here .

This spring, I miss Hokkaido immensely.

This spring. I miss it so much. Otaru Canal Furano's flower fields The trip to Hokkaido, Japan was several years ago. Remembering the weather and scenery of that time. Freshness in the air. The refreshing feeling of the wind blowing on the body. Mood became beautiful too. Hokkaido is a place with a very slow pace. There are few people, few houses, and few cars. There are plenty of mountains, waters, trees, flowers and grass. Photos taken with a mobile phone appear to have higher pixel density due to clean air.
