Botanical Gardens in Ofuna (フラワーセンター大船植物園)
Ofuna isn’t far from Yokohama. Just 3-4 stations away… although the distance between each station is quite a bit. Trust me, you wouldn’t want to try walking there ^^. From Ofuna station, it’s about a 15-20 minute walk to the botanical gardens. Check the link here. It’s all in Japanese though. Just continue walking along the river that runs parallel to the train tracks. The Botanical Gardens will be on your right. Hard to miss. The weather was pretty cloudy when I went, hence you won’t see any blue skies in the photos above. If you’re a student. Entry’s gonna set you back ¥250. Else it’s ¥350. Bring along a picnic basket, a picnic mat, a good book (perhaps a great date too?) and you can spend the whole day surrounded by flowers. Remember, flowers are seasonal. Don’t expect to see what I took if you decide to go in June. You might be surprised and see something better ^^!
