Flowers are the main attraction in a garden.
And, although there is an indication of when the flowers will bloom, it more or less varies according to temperature and weather.

If you're planning to visit few times, we highly recommend to get the Annual Passport!
It's the perfect way to enjoy the plants of all seasons and since it’s a vast, outdoor space, you can quite easily avoid the “three Cs” (crowded places, closed places, close-contacts settings).

The normal ticket price is 1,000 yen for adults and the annual passport is only at 1,200 yen !
Even if you're only planning to visit the farm twice, it will be worth it !

Moreover, if you have an Annual Passport and bring a friend with you, the admission fee for your friend will be halved!
That's a pretty good deal, isn't it?

According to the official website, this year they will also be selling advance tickets online. You can buy tickets in advance on the website and show the QR code displayed on your smartphone at the reception desk to enter the park. Or course you are free to print the QR code too.

The price of the electronic ticket is 900 yen for adults and 450 yen for junior high school students, which is a little cheaper!
