Many consider this one of those places that you just have to see and experience before you die. Hitachi Kaihin Koen - or Seaside Park is most famous in the spring. about 2 weeks after the cherry blossoms from mid April to early May when the Nemophilia or Baby Blue Eyes bloom on Miharashi Hill creating a scene where the ground meets the sky in blue. There are over 4 million Nemophilia on this hill. And this tree? The tree was here first before the Nemophilia so it is a permanent resident of this stunningly blue landscape. Let’s take a couple of minutes and just enjoy the beautiful scenery together. I asked Hattori-san who works at the park to tell me more about it’s history and background. This place used to be a military space. The Japanese military. After the war, it became the training ground for the US military And then it was returned to Japan , it became a national park. Now it is a beautiful park full of happiness for the visitors. This is the site of the United States Air Force’s Mito’s ATG (Air-to-Ground) bombing range. When the land was handed back to Japan in 1973, It was cleared out of dangerous debris and made into a national park for the purpose of peace. It was opened in 1991. You can see more of its history in the park gallery. You can see more of its history in the park gallery. About 15 years ago, we decided to grow some flowers The park manager at the time wondered what to grow on the hill. and thought about what flower would attract people to come. When he was walking one day, he saw a blue flower growing on the roadside. He was alone. When he spotted it, he said -- Isn’t this Nemophilia? If we were to grow it on this hill, won’t it be all blue connecting with the sky? So we decided to grow it after so many tries, which has led to this great landscape and now so many people come, even visitors from abroad. It’s best to come on a sunny day like today. Flowers are a living thing. so when it rains, it will close. On cloudy days, it may not look so well when you take picture so a day like today with the flowers open is perfect. It’s a large park and you need to have a map to get around. Or follow the signs. There are 7 different areas each with its own theme in the park. To cover it all, rent a bicycle! There are paths for riding, perfect for one — or two! This is the glass house cafe There are several food and drink places here. Kids will love the amusement part of this park. Adults, too. So whether it’s a date, a family outing, or a group gathering with friends there is something for everyone. It’s just a short trip from Tokyo And the best part of it all is that it’s only 410 yen for entry! 80 yen for kids! While I was here, I also discovered the parks Tulip World where the are over 280,000 of them, 220 different varieties. A few weeks before the tulips, over 1M daffodils bloom here. And if you come in October, you’ll be amazed at another fantasy-like scene with red puffy Kochia scrubs. Hitachi Kaihin Koen is one of the most amazing national parks I’ve ever visited in Japan combining amusement with nature. Knowing what this area used to be more than a half century ago makes this place so much more meaningful. If you’ve got a free afternoon especially in late April this national park in Hitachi will absolutely leave you smiling. Next time: Tokyo Street Food: Shibamata See More on Instagram: ONLYinJAPANtv
