Shibazakura Takinoue Park
Japan's largest moss pink colony grown from a crate of seedlings
100,000 square meters of moss pinks spreading across a small hill in Takinoue town center become a carpet of pink and purple from early to late May, captivating visitors.
Moss pinks that once started from "a crate of seedlings" have grown over the years into one of Japan's largest colonies. The colorful panoramic view adorning the mountainside is overwhelmingly scaled and eye-catching. Small, cute flowers densely fill the park, and sweet fragrances enveloping the entire town drift through. The soft texture of petals and vivid color contrast create scenery symbolizing Hokkaido's spring.
At the "Dowa Village Takinoue Shibazakura Festival" held during peak season, helicopter tours allow you to view the sea of flowers from the sky. The spectacular moss pink view spreading below gives a different emotion from the ground. A parking lot accommodating 165 vehicles is maintained, welcoming many tourists.
