Breath-taking scenery of winter cherry and Japanese maple.

Last update :

Jomine Park sits on a plateau 500m above sea level at half-way of Kami Mountain. The Park is the center of tourism in the neighboring area. The rare winter-blooming cherry trees in the Park are getting attention.

They flower from late fall into early winter. They are also called October cherry and come with light-pink, double petals, making a beautiful scenery surrounded by Japanese maple. The observation deck in the cherry garden gives an especially stunning pink and red view. Lighting-up begins in late October into early December while winter cherries bloom, presenting a fantasy world, different from the daytime.

Jomine Park Camping Ground, Rest House Jomine, and Barbecue House are on the premises, letting you relax in nature all day. On the last Sunday of October, there is the Winter Cherry Festival, where local products are sold and a drawing and other fun events are held. Each year, many tourists are attracted to the Festival.
