around 330 Someiyoshinos planted in the park, where you can enjoy
nature, such as the pond and fields. The view from the path along theChidori-ga-fuchi moat is amazing. The cherry trees along with Tabunokis
or Mizukis can be seen from a higher position, where their branches infull blossom are extended to the surface of the moat. The landscape fullof gorgeous cherry blossoms is breathtaking.
