Komuroyama Park

Overview

Komuroyama Park is a comprehensive park developed on the summit and northwestern foothills of 321-meter Komuroyama in Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture. Known for its beautiful flowers blooming throughout the year, the park is especially famous for its "Azalea Festival" held from late April to early May, where 100,000 azaleas of 40 varieties create a stunning landscape, like a vibrant red carpet. The azalea tunnel, with azaleas taller than a person on both sides, is a popular photo spot. The camellia garden, with 4,000 camellias of 1000 varieties, hosts a "Camellia Viewing Event" from late February to early March, offering a chance to admire rare camellia blossoms. From the summit, you can enjoy a magnificent 360-degree panoramic view in the clear air, including Mount Fuji to the north, Sagami Bay with its white sails to the east, the Boso Peninsula and Izu Islands to the south, and the Amagi mountain range to the west. A scenic lift provides a comfortable ascent, perfect for seniors and those with pets. The summit features a cafe and observation facilities, where you can savor delicious food and drinks while enjoying the breathtaking views. A "Dinosaur Plaza" near the summit offers plenty of children's play equipment, allowing kids to have fun with dinosaur monuments and large playground equipment. Komuroyama Park is a comprehensive park offering flowers, scenery, and attractions for people of all ages. It's the perfect spot for anyone who wants to connect with nature and create lasting memories.
