The Hydrangea Garden was created by the “Hydrangea Growers’ Association” in the Mayama area, the eastern entrance to Shimonita Town, with the aim of creating the best hydrangea garden in the Kanto region.
About 20,000 hydrangeas and 1,200 crape myrtle trees have been planted on a 3 hectare site on river terraces created by the repeated uplift of the earth and erosion of the Kabura River.
From inside the park, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the unique mountain range of Nishijoshu, and while enjoying the hydrangea flowers, you can also fully appreciate the surrounding scenery.
