Kanagawa's 100 Specialties [Crafts]
The "Kanagawa Specialty 100 Selections" are selected by the prefecture with recommendations from prefectural residents and organizations from among the crafts, processed foods, and agricultural, forestry, and fishery products cultivated in the tradition and climate of Kanagawa Prefecture, with the aim of widely promoting them both inside and outside the prefecture as an element of Kanagawa Prefecture's tourism appeal and contributing to the promotion of tourism. It was selected for the first time in Showa 60 and re-selected in 2006 Heisei 18. More than 10 years have passed since the last selection, and the needs of tourists are changing, so we have selected a new "Kanagawa Specialty 100 Selections". We will also add attractive gems that are conscious of inbound tourism and local gourmet foods that are popular in the region, and widely promote them as important resources to convey the charm of Kanagawa.

2024 Ume Plum Festival
~About 300 varieties and 500 plum trees are in full bloom~
The "Ume Plum Garden of the Mountain Stream" is a colorful Ume Plum Garden that boasts the largest number of varieties in the Kanto region, with about 500 Ume plum trees of about 300 varieties planted from early to late blooming.
This year's theme is "The Shape of Flowers ~The Individual Charm Created by Petals~".
Here are the differences in the shape of the flowers and the way they bloom for each variety. Please enjoy the beauty of the delicate Ume plum.
In 2024, keep an eye on Ume Plum!
This year's theme is "Red Ume Plum ~Bright Flower Ume Plum~", and we will focus on Ume Plum.
The difference between "red Ume plum" and "white Ume plum" is not the color of the flower, but the color of the pith when the trunk of the tree is cut.
This year, we will focus on surprisingly unknown ways to distinguish them and the characteristics of "Ume Plum".
Please enjoy the charm of "Red Ume Plum" at the quiz rally and explanation board set up in the Ume Plum Garden.
