Park • Japan, 〒787-0316 Kochi, Tosashimizu, Matsuo, 松尾臼碆１０２１
Located in Matsuo, Tosashimizu City, Kochi Prefecture, Usubae Sakura Park is a scenic spot near the southernmost tip of Shikoku. The park has a vast area sloping towards the sea, and during the cherry blossom season, you can enjoy beautiful pink-colored scenery.
The park's specialty, the Usubae cherry blossoms, bloom slightly later than usual cherry blossoms. The Botan cherry is particularly famous, with the best viewing time being around mid-April. The sight of the large cherry trees swaying in the spring breeze is breathtaking.
The park has a wide lawn area, perfect for families to enjoy picnics. Although playground equipment is prohibited, you can spend your time leisurely on the well-maintained lawn.
However, the park's access is somewhat complicated, so it is recommended to check the route in advance.
With well-maintained toilets and parking facilities, it is also popular among overnight car stay users. Located at an altitude of about 120 meters, it is relatively cool even in summer. However, since there are private houses nearby, please observe good manners.
The park is relatively quiet outside of the cherry blossom season, making it ideal for those who want to spend a peaceful time. You can enjoy nature with spring cherry blossoms, summer greenery, autumn leaves, and clear winter air.
Usubae Sakura Park is not only famous for cherry blossoms but is a charming spot to enjoy throughout the year. The scenic view overlooking the sea, the spacious area, and the tranquil atmosphere will heal the hearts of visitors. If you want to immerse yourself in the nature of Kochi, be sure to visit.
