Chichibu: Spectacular Views of Hitsujiyama Park Beyond Moss Phlox

Hitsujiyama Park in Chichibu City is famous for its moss phlox hill, but other seasons offer plenty of sights to see. In early summer, poppies and lavender bloom, while autumn brings cosmos flowers that color the hillside. Within the park is a 'Petting Farm' where sheep graze, offering a healing spot to interact with sheep with Buko Mountain as a backdrop. In winter, the crisp air reveals Buko Mountain's majestic form in sharp detail. The view from the observation deck overlooking Chichibu downtown is equally stunning, making this a park best enjoyed at leisure during seasons beyond moss phlox season.
