One of the most splendid views you can capture in Japan is this Nemophila (baby blue eyes) field! It’s located within Hitachi Seaside Park (ひたち海浜公園) in Ibaraki prefecture. The 215 hectare park features many kinds of seasonal flowers all year around, but the best season to visit there is in spring when the Nemophila festival is held from mid April to mid May.
Over 5 million blue nemophila flowers bloom at the 3.5-hectare Miharashi Hills and transform the field to the never ending blue ocean. Miharashi Hills are located at 58 m above sea level, offering an amazing panoramic view of the flowers, blue sky and the ocean, all in blue.
Don’t miss a chance to see one of the most spectacular spring view on earth! The best time to see nemophila is usually mid April to early May. The park gets extremely crowded on weekends as everyone comes to see this seasonal landscape so visit on weekdays is much recommended!
