Chasing Sakura at Maizuru Park

#cherryblossom25 Celebrate the Arrival of Spring at Maizuru Park
Maizuru Park in Fukuoka City offers stunning seasonal landscapes with the historic Fukuoka Castle ruins as its backdrop.

In spring, the park blooms with a variety of cherry blossoms like Somei Yoshino and the double-flowered Yaezakura. The Fukuoka Castle Sakura Festival is held during the peak bloom season, bringing crowds together to enjoy delicious food stalls and celebrate the arrival of spring. A must-see at the festival is the nighttime illuminations of the cherry trees and the stone base of Fukuoka Castle.

Other botanical wonders can be found throughout the year - starting with cherry blossoms in March, followed by azaleas and tree peonies in April, and stem peonies and Japanese irises in May.

Maizuru Park is the perfect spot to experience the changing seasons and discover something new on every visit.
