1.5 Million Iris Flowers At A Waterside Village SawaraSuigo Sawara Ayame Park

You can enjoy seeing irises in Sawara from a boat going in the park. 'Marriage Boat' is, in other words, Japanese June bride. I really long for a couple in a boat surrounded with many irises! ◎Parking area is available. During the Iris Festival, a shuttle bus from Sawara Station (please check the latest information). If you come by your car, Suigo Ayame Itako Garden is close from here, it'll be nice to make the rounds. Though you need to pay the admission fees and take bus from the nearest station, you can enjoy flowers enough, such as seeing from boats and walking in the large park, at Suigo Sawara Iris Garden.

Summer Festival As UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage & Japanese Important Folk Cultural PropertySawara Summer Festival

In the festival, their 'Nonoji Mawashi' is most exciting! They shoulder the rear wheels, and turn the float, which is 3 or 4 tons, like writing a letter 'の(no)' by brush, with the left front wheel as an axis. It's very impressive!◎[Train] Sawara Station of JR Nnarita Line. [Car] 10 min from Sawara-Katori IC, or 20 min from Taiei IC. Free extra parking area at Tonegawa riverside for 1000 cars.
