Hirosaki Park, Tohoku, Japan

Beautiful autumn view and chrysanthemums fair

We were here on 2 November. We walked through the Hirosaki Park with many beautiful autumn foliage on our way to Hirosaki Castle. We were surprised at how small the castle was and initially thought it was a mock up. Parts of the castle was still under renovations. The view infront of the castle is beautiful facing the mountains and there were benches where we had our tea break. We went up the castle. The stairs were steep and narrow. Once on top of the castle, they display photos of all the castles in Japan. The view on top is nice. On the ground floor, there is a small souvenir shop. We also visited the botanical gardens when they were having a chrysanthemums fair. All the dolls were dressed up with chrysanthemums in very artistic way. It’s worth to get the package entrance tickets to both the castle and the botanical gardens. There are renovations around, otherwise the place will be more beautiful. Hirosaki is indeed an interesting city to visit.

Lovable place must to see!!
I would say Hirosaki Park is one of the most beautiful place to see and to experience the best views of cherry blossom festival. I have been there once and that was a remarkable time of my life and that lovable destination.
