Introducing popular sightseeing spots in Kanagawa Prefecture!
Azumayama Park
A scenic park famous for its early-blooming rape blossoms
Azumayama Park in Ninomiya Town offers sweeping views of Mt. Fuji and Sagami Bay. From January through February, about 60,000 early-blooming rape blossoms come into full bloom, covering the slopes near the summit in a yellow carpet.
It’s a short 20-minute hike to the summit. There are several routes, but first-timers should try the Yakubaguchi Course, the closest route from Ninomiya Station. The shaded paths feel pleasant, and you can picnic on the grassy summit plaza while enjoying a peaceful atmosphere.
The park’s famous 102-meter-long slide is a hit with children! In late March it becomes a spectacular coaster running through a tunnel of fully bloomed cherry trees. The park also offers seasonal displays of azaleas, hydrangeas, cosmos, and other blooms.
Basic Information
Address: Ninomiya, Naka District, Ninomiya Town, Kanagawa Prefecture
Phone: 0463-72-3611
Access: About a 5-minute walk from the North Exit of JR Ninomiya Station

Kanagawa’s 100 Famous Local Products [Crafts]
"Kanagawa’s 100 Famous Local Products" is a selection made by Kanagawa Prefecture to promote its tourist appeal both within and beyond the prefecture and to contribute to tourism development. From crafts, processed foods, and agricultural, forestry, and fishery products nurtured by Kanagawa’s traditions and natural environment, the prefecture selects items recommended by residents and various organizations. The first selection took place in fiscal 1985, and a re-selection was conducted in fiscal 2006. More than ten years have passed since the last selection, and as visitor needs have changed, a new "Kanagawa’s 100 Famous Local Products" has now been chosen. We have added attractive items that appeal to inbound tourists as well as locally popular specialty foods, and we will widely promote these as important resources for showcasing Kanagawa’s charm.

[Fujiya Hotel]
Limited-time sale until Thursday, February 29: “Petite Pomme” and “Hakone Anzan Ensemble”!
Fujiya Hotel has launched a limited-time sale of two collaborative items—“Petite Pomme” and “Hakone Anzan Ensemble”—created with students from Kanrei Shirayuri Gakuen High School, at the Bakery & Sweets Picot. The sale runs from Saturday, January 27, 2024, through Thursday, February 29, 2024.
Supporting the school’s PBL (Project Based Learning) program, this collaboration came together through shared commitment to the initiative.
Under the theme “Develop a new specialty to turn Gen Z into repeat visitors,” students and the hotel’s bakery chefs held repeated discussions. From the first meeting, it took about six months to reach the product launch.
Prototype items were sold at the school festival, and, based on questionnaire feedback, the products were further refined. The students’ opinions guided improvements to the recipe, pricing, and promotional methods, shaping the final commercial breads.
Please enjoy these items born from a collaboration between students with fresh, next-generation sensibilities and the reliably developed flavors Fujiya Hotel has refined over many years.
[Sales location] Fujiya Hotel Bakery & Sweets Picot
[Sales period] Limited time only: Saturday, January 27, 2024–Thursday, February 29, 2024
[Hours] 9:00–17:00

Odawara Flower Garden
2024 Plum Festival
~About 300 varieties and 500 plum trees in full bloom~
The Keiryu Plum Garden is a vivid plum grove planted with about 300 varieties and 500 flowering plum trees, from early bloomers to late bloomers, boasting one of the largest selections of varieties in the Kanto region.
This year’s theme is “The Shapes of Flowers — The Individual Charms Created by Petals.”
We introduce the differences in flower shapes and blooming styles by variety. Please enjoy the delicate beauty of the plum blossoms.
Focus on Red Plums in 2024!
This year’s theme is “Red Plum — The Brilliant Flower Plum,” highlighting red-plum varieties.
The difference between red plums and white plums is not the flower color but the color of the pith when the tree’s trunk is cut.
This year we focus on this lesser-known way to tell them apart and on the characteristics of red plums.
Enjoy the appeal of red plums through the quiz rally and informational panels installed throughout the plum garden.
