A true flower paradise! Approximately 7,000 peach blossoms, forsythia, and other colorful flowers bloom in vibrant profusion!
Overview
Hanayashiki Park, located in Fukushima City, Fukushima Prefecture, is a park boasting approximately 7,000 peach blossoms, forsythia, and a variety of other colorful flowers. The peak blooming season, from early to mid-April, is truly breathtaking!
A pink carpet of peach blossoms, the vibrant yellow of forsythia, and the soft pink of cherry blossoms create a stunning display, like a living painting.
Beyond the flowers, the expansive park offers walking paths and observation points for leisurely strolls.
The walking paths offer diverse routes, including those that wind through cherry blossom groves and flower fields, ensuring a constantly engaging experience.
From the observation points, you can enjoy panoramic views of Fukushima City and the surrounding landscape.
Due to traffic congestion around Hanamiyama Park during the spring blooming season, using public transportation is recommended.
A temporary bus, the "Hanamiyama-go," operates between Fukushima Station and Hanamiyama Park.
Hanamiyama Park is not only beautiful in spring; its autumn foliage is equally stunning, making it a year-round destination.

Temporary Bus:
From late March to late April, Fukushima Kotsu operates a direct "Hanamiyama-go" bus.
Buses run approximately every 20 minutes, with a 15-minute ride. The one-way fare is ¥250, and a round-trip is ¥500. From the Hanamiyama bus stop, it's an 800m walk (about 10 minutes) along a dedicated walking path to Hanamiyama Park. Bus frequency increases on weekends during peak bloom.
During peak bloom, traffic congestion can occur due to the concentration of tour buses and private vehicles, potentially taking close to an hour to reach the Hanamiyama bus stop from Fukushima Station East Exit. Long lines also form at the Hanamiyama bus stop for buses heading back to Fukushima Station.
