—Tour Info —

  • Nabana no Sato is a part of the Long Island Resort, which also includes large Outlets, playgrounds, and hotels, to meet the needs of tourists. It is famous for its square covering an area of about 13,000 Japanese feet, and it is also known as the largest garden in Japan. Here, you can see the beauty of the flowers blooming in all seasons, and each season has a different theme. Although Nabana no Sato is a famous flower viewing spot in Japan throughout the year, the winter flower show is always the most eye-catching. The grandest among them is of course the annual “Winter Flower Competition.” The Lantern Festival has also been held here since 2004. In recent years, lantern festivals have had different themes, such as “Fuji and the Sea” and “Aurora”, etc. Since the exhibition period of the Lantern Festival starts in autumn and winter and lasts until the following spring, many people head to the famous flower garden to enjoy the night maple and night cherry blossoms, both of which are very romantic and intoxicating!
  • The autumn leaves of the Gozaiso cable car start to turn red from the top of the mountain. From mid-October to late November each year is a good time to enjoy the autumn leaves. The maple leaves from the top of the mountain and the bottom of the mountain look quite different. Taking the Gozaisho cable car, you can even feel the changes of the seasons from the bottom of the mountain to the top, overlooking the fiery red of the entire mountain forest and the famous rocks of Gozaisho Mountain. The hoarfrost is located on Gozasho Mountains at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and you can usually see it from late December to mid-March. However, hoarfrost cannot form without the following meteorological conditions. 1) sufficient humidity, 2) sufficient wind, 3) air temperature below 0 degrees or below freezing. The small water spots are blown by the wind to the trees and freeze into ice, and the ice particles will become larger and larger under repeated repetitions to form tree ice.
