Hokuryu Town Sunflower Village & Sunflower Festival
Immerse Yourself in Japan's Largest Sea of Sunflowers
Experience the breathtaking sight of 2 million sunflowers covering 23 hectares of rolling hills in brilliant gold, creating an unforgettable summer spectacle.
In Hokuryu Town, summer arrives with one of Japan's largest sunflower fields bursting into bloom. Gentle hills are transformed into a vast yellow landscape as millions of flowers turn toward the sun. Stroll through the fields as the scent of fresh greenery drifts on the warm breeze, while the nostalgic "Sunflower-go" sightseeing tractor adds a charming touch to the experience.
For a closer look at nature's diversity, visit the World Sunflower Corner, where about 24 unique varieties from around the globe showcase a fascinating range of shapes, textures, and colors.
For more fun, explore the giant sunflower maze before stopping by the Sunflower Information Center. Be sure to try the famous Sunflower Soft Serve, whose creamy texture and roasted sunflower seed aroma make it the perfect summer treat.
Lovingly cultivated by the local community since 1979, this golden landscape is more than a beautiful view. It reflects the town's pride and dedication, inviting visitors to create unforgettable summer memories surrounded by an endless sea of sunflowers.
