Approximately 6,400 types of flowers welcome visitors each season at this relaxing park featuring a train that runs through it.

This massive 25.4hectare park boasts approximately 6,400 types of flowers and plants. The park features unique flowerbeds and gardens including the “World Lily Gardens,” where approximately 100 types of lilies collected from around the world can be seen, and the “World Gardens,” which comprise four different types of gardens built in collaboration with Sapporo’s sister cities Portland, Munich, and Shen Yang. From early summer to snowfall, visitors can see different flowers during different seasons. We recommend riding the “Lily Train,” which runs through the park and allows visitors to enjoy seasonal flowers from inside a comfortable train. The park golf course and restaurant tat serves lily bulbs are also popular.
