Hitachi Seaside Park, a famous flower garden and amusement park, is a popular spot for tourists to take photos with the small blue flowers known as Nemophila (Baby Blue Eyes), which start blooming in mid-April and peak in early May. Unfortunately, we missed them this time, so we came to see the Kochia bushes instead. With over 32,000 Kochia bushes, the small hill in front of us is filled with vibrant green, fluffy bushes (not the canned fish) that perfectly match the summer sky. By mid-October, these bushes turn red, contrasting beautifully with the sky, making this garden a great place to visit and take photos in every season, each offering a unique experience. The park spans over 1 hectare and features more than 1,000,000 flowers from 550 species, surrounded by pine forests. At the entrance, you can purchase tickets ranging from one-day passes to three-day passes, ensuring you can explore the park thoroughly. Inside, the park is divided into zones such as the flower fields, amusement park, activity areas, and more. Each zone is further divided by the seasons in which the flowers bloom. So, if you want to see a specific view, make sure to check the blooming season to avoid missing out on your favorite flowers.

When you arrive at this sea of baby blue eyes, you can take stunning photos to your heart's content! This flower field is quite expansive, with varying elevations, so the effect of your photos can differ greatly depending on the angle. Therefore, take your time to find the best spot for yourself to capture the most enchanting photos. The blooming season for baby blue eyes is from mid-April to early May each year. During this period, both the weather and the scenery are perfect for a flower-viewing trip! However, note that the blooming time can vary slightly each year, so it's a good idea to check the official website before you go to ensure you catch the flowers at their peak. Oh, and this period coincides with Japan's Golden Week holiday, so expect larger crowds and be prepared! This park is quite large, spanning 215 hectares, so you might accidentally take a wrong turn. But don't worry, just enter through the 'West Entrance - Wing Gate'! There's a bicycle center nearby where you can rent a bike or take the 'Seaside Train' to easily tour the park and head straight to the sea of baby blue eyes.
