Moss pink at Tomita Satoniwa Park711-1 Tomitacho, Wakaba-ku, Chiba City
During the spring at Tomita Satoniwa Park, 120,000 mats of moss pink blanket the entire flower field. Sunflowers grow in summer, and cosmos bloom in autumn, so you can enjoy the scenery of all four seasons.
We recommend admiring Mt. Fuji from the beaches of Chiba City! In the winter the air is clear, and Mt. Fuji can be seen clearly.
