Norn Flower Garden

Spring sees the return of color to Snow Country. It doesn't take long for the plants and flowers to recover after several months under meters of snow. As soon as it melts everything quickly starts to grow again. There are several places in Snow Country that have amazing spring blooms and one of the best is the Norn Flower Garden.

The garden is open from April 28th to May 20th and during that time there are hundreds of thousands of daffodils in bloom. It is quite an impressive site and one of the top three of its kind in the whole of Eastern Japan. You can stroll through them at your leisure or get an aerial view by riding the lift up. For those of you of an artistic leaning there is also a photo contest running - and with so many flowers around you will be spoiled for choice. An while you are there you should really try the daffodil ice cream that is on sale too.
