Mizunomori: Where Water Lilies Paint the Pond with Dreams

#holidayitinerary

In the heart of Kusatsu City, Mizunomori Aquatic Plants Park (みずの森) is a hidden oasis dedicated entirely to water-loving flora. This ecological sanctuary features over 1,000 species of aquatic plants across serene ponds, marshlands, and glasshouses – a paradise for botany lovers, photographers, and anyone seeking tranquility near Kyoto.

Best Time: Early morning for lotus blossoms (they close by afternoon); July for peak water lilies.
