Product Info
－ Trip Introduction －
- Nabana no Sato
Nabana no Sato is part of the Nagashima Resort, which also includes a large outlet mall, amusement park, and hotels, catering to all your entertainment and leisure needs. Famous for its approximately 13,000-tsubo plaza, it is known as the largest flower garden in Japan. Here, you can enjoy a sea of flowers in every season, with different themes for each. While Nabana no Sato is a famous flower-viewing spot all year round, its winter flower exhibition is the most spectacular. The highlight is, of course, the annual 'Winter Illumination.' This light festival has been held since 2004. Recent festivals have featured various themes, such as 'Mt. Fuji and the Sea' and 'Aurora,' creating breathtaking scenes. Since the illumination runs from autumn and winter through the following spring, many people visit specifically to enjoy the night maple and cherry blossoms, both of which are incredibly romantic and mesmerizing! - Gozaisho Ropeway
In autumn, the foliage at Gozaisho starts turning red from the summit. Mid-October to late November is the best time to view the autumn leaves, with different charms from the summit to the base. Riding the Gozaisho Ropeway allows you to experience the seasonal changes from the base to the summit, offering views of the fiery red forest and the famous strange rock formations of Mt. Gozaisho. It is a hidden gem for autumn foliage viewing recommended even by the Japanese! Winter is famous for its rime ice and ice waterfalls. The rime ice is located in the Gozaisho mountain range at an altitude of over 1,000 meters and can generally be seen from late December to mid-March. However, rime ice cannot form without the following weather conditions: 1) Sufficient humidity, 2) Sufficient wind, and 3) Temperatures at or below 0 degrees Celsius. Tiny water droplets are blown onto trees by the wind and freeze, and as this repeats, the ice particles grow larger to form rime ice. You must not miss this masterpiece created by the power of nature.
※ The Gozaisho Ropeway will be closed for regular maintenance from December 9 to 23. During this period, the itinerary will be adjusted to visit MITSUI OUTLET PARK Jazz Dream Nagashima. We apologize for any inconvenience.
* The Gozaisho Ropeway will be undergoing routine maintenance from December 9th to 23rd, during which time it will be closed. The itinerary will be changed to a visit to Mitsui Outlet Mall Jazz Dream Long Island during this period. We apologize for the inconvenience.
