Of the three dome-shaped greenhouses, the popular “tropical plant dome” is the largest in the country. Its jungle-like interior houses 4,000 specimens from 550 species, including rare baobab plants and Victoria amazonica. The must-see “Hana to Midori no Stage” has eight exhibitions held throughout the year along with the seasons. The garden features a walkway, allowing you to enjoy the peony garden, azalea garden, herb garden, and more as you stroll.

    大きなドーム型の温室が特徴の植物園。 中には滝が落ち、川となり、流れついた先の池にはオニバスが咲いています。 わざわざ暑い夏に熱帯温室に行ったのですが、いろいろな花が楽しめました。 コロナ対応でイベント中止になりましたが、リニューアルが楽しみです。 4月には営業開始するのかな。

    First of all:this is not a place teeming with breathtaking flowers with a lot of Insta- worthy spots. The park is not as popular is Echigo Park, and thus is WAY less crowded. Its a place you can go...
