The National Hitachi Seaside Park (605-4 Onuma, Mawata, Hitachinaka City, Ibaraki Prefecture) announced that the nemophila fields are in full bloom.
At “Miharashi no Oka” where about 5.3 million nemophilas are planted, the flowers have been in full bloom since April 16, two days earlier than normal. The full bloom is expected to continue until around April 25, and the number of flowers is expected to remain relatively high throughout the month of April.
The variety of nemophila that can be seen at the garden is insignis blue. This year marks the 25th year of planting.
The National Hitachi Seaside Park can be reached by public transportation rail, bus, or car.
Between JR Katsuta Station and Park West Exit, Ibaraki Kotsu will operate a direct temporary bus service (April 11-May 6). Hitachinaka Kaihin Railway will operate a free shuttle bus between Ajigaura Station on the Minato Line and the Park Kaihin Exit (April 11 – May 6).
Since the park is expected to be crowded on weekends, during the GW period, and around noon, visitors are advised to take a detour route to avoid traffic jams when coming by car.
