Hokoen Park

OVERVIEW

A Lakeside Haven of Nature and History in Nagahama

Hokoen Park is a picturesque lakeside park that offers stunning views of Lake Biwa. The park is built around Nagahama Castle, which has been reconstructed as a historical museum, and it is a popular spot for both locals and visitors to enjoy nature and history.

The park is especially famous for its seasonal beauty. In early spring, visitors flock to see the plum blossoms and cherry blossoms that transform the park into a sea of pink and white. Throughout the year, you can enjoy tranquil walks along the lakeshore, or simply relax while taking in the peaceful atmosphere.

Hokoen Park is also a great spot for family outings, with open spaces perfect for picnics and leisurely strolls.
