Hitachinaka Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

The Most Beautiful Blue Hill in Japan

If you arrived in Japan on late April and still wanted to see some cherry blossoms or any other flowers blooming, maybe you have to go to Hitachi Seaside Park in Ibaraki Prefecture. Getting there from Tokyo is easy peasy. I went there around 11 a.m and return to Tokyo before sunset. I get on the train from Ueno Station to Katsuta Station. Once you exit from Katsuta Station, you'll find a ticket counter to Hitachi Seaside Park. You'll get return ticket bus and entrance ticket. There are a lot of flower blooming in late April at Hitachi Seaside Park. Cherry blossoms were also still blooming meanwhile you can't find one in Tokyo. But everyone come to Hitachi Seaside Park not only for cherry blossom or tulip, but there's a hill covered with blue nemophilia. I swear it was the most beautiful place I've ever been. It was my last day in Japan and I didn't regret coming to Hitachi Seaside Park. You gotta see with your own eyes. #japan #tokyo #hitachiseasidepark #hitachiibaraki #wecreate #awesomepic #flowerlover #2023travelwish

Sea of blue

#japan #ibaraki This is the Hitachi Seaside Park located in Ibaraki prefecture. It is abit far from Tokyo but I think it’s worth the trip. You can either take a straight highway bus from Shinjuku station or take the JR line to Katsuta station and take a bus to the park. During peak seasons they will sell the return bus trip and entrance tickets as a package at the bus stop which is cheaper! The park is really big and you can even have a picnic there ~

Kochia at Hitachi Seaside Park

You can visit this 200 hectare Hitachi Seaside Park in Ibaraki Prefecture in all seasons. It is home to a variety of flowers that bloom throughout the year. Particularly popular are the fields of densely blooming Nemophila (baby blue eyes) in the spring and the kochia (summer cypress), which turn from green to bright red in the fall. You can enjoy exploring the park on a cycling course (rental bicycles available) or on the cute Seaside Train. This was the view when we went in October 🤩 Access: From JR Katsuta Station (JR Joban Line), take the Ibaraki Kotsu bus bound for Kaihin Koen Minami Guchi (17 min). Get off at Kaihin Koen Nishi Guchi stop. #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer #awesomepic #tripblazers #kochia #ibaraki #japantravel #japan

#Tulips♥️

Originally native to Turkey, tulips underwent selective breeding in Europe before being brought to Japan in the 19th century. The tulip garden in Hitachi Seaside Park features a wide variety of tulips to produce a colourful design. Early-flowering varieties and late-flowering varieties are grown together to produce flower beds that change over time – every area of the tulip garden is the product of years of study and experience! Located in the pine woodlands of Tamago no Mori, the colourful tulip garden sure to put a smile on anyone’s face. When: April Total:260,000 plants in 230 varieties Where:Tamago no Mori Flower Garden
