Takinoue Park

Tips from the community

Teetering on the edge of violet pink, Takinoue Park blushes with magenta shades from the start of May through early June. This pink and purple hillside exists thanks to millions of shibazakura, or moss phlox, a flowering plant that apparently has a knack for taking over city parks (and human attention spans). Some patches are pink, others the brightest purple around. Either way, it’s an electrifying sight.
