About this place
Shimizu Park (清水公園) is a privately owned park located in Noda City in north-eastern Chiba prefecture about 65 kilometers north of Tokyo. It is located 200 meters west-north-west of Shimizu-kōen Station on the Tōbu Urban Park Line, which is roughly 30 km east of its terminus in central Saitama city. This park is renowned for its cherry blossoms, boasting over two thousand cherry blossoms in fifty varieties. Many of those bloom in late March or April when an annual Cherry Blossom Festival is held. In 1990 Shimizu Park was selected by the Japan Sakura Association as one of Japan's Top 100 Cherry Blossom Spots. Plum trees and azalea plants also abound. Each February a plum festival is held and later in spring an azalea festival follows.
