Poppy Happy Square
A poppy flower field that initially was planted as a campaign to prevent illegal dumping. With about 12.5 hectares, it is the largest in Japan. At the Poppy Festival in mid-May, you can enjoy refreshments, regional vegetables, and of course, flower picking! The view of Mt. Fuji from under the Onari bridge by the Arakawa river, where the field can be found, is known as one of the best views of Mt. Fuji. A truly spectacular and scenic view of red, pink, and orange poppies blooming all around you.
