Ibaraki Hitachinaka Seaside Park; Tulip Season

Every year we go to this park at least 3 times because every season there's always something beautiful to see. This time we came for the tulips, which Angela and I missed out on last year due to bad timing. 

Entrance fee is ¥400 for adults.

The sight that greets us upon entrance

If you don't already know, here in Japan we separate trash accordingly

We rode our bikes inside the park because on foot it would have taken thrice as long and we weren't up for too much exercise. There are bike-only lanes throughout the park so you don't have to worry about crashing into people.

The flowers are so pretty! 

Gift with the tulips
Doesn't it look like we're all in freaking Holland and not in Japan? Awesome.

There's even a windmill, albeit a fake one



This park also has designated BBQ areas, children's playground, some rolling hills that overlook the ocean and huge grass lawns perfect for a picnic.

I read somewhere that this park was listed in the Top 10 Parks of the World or something.
