Asuwayama Park
Asuwayama Park, located on top of Mt. Asuwa, is known for seasonal flowers, such as weeping cherry blossom trees in late March and April. In spring, 3,500 cherry trees, selected as one of the "100 best cherry blossom viewing spots," bloom, and in early summer the city flower, the hydrangea, is in full bloom. The park’s zoo has free admission, and visitors can see animals like meerkats, prairie dogs, peacocks, tortoises, and capybaras—and in some cases, even feed them.
The park is also home to the Atagozaka Tea Ceremony Museum, the Akemi Tachibana Literature Memorial Museum, and Asuwa Shrine.
