Suigo Sawara Ayame Park
水郷佐原あやめパークChiba · Kanto
Suigo Sawara Ayame Park is an eight-hectare water garden in Katori, Chiba, laid out with islands, channels and arched bridges in the style of the old Tone River delta. Paths cross the water on foot, and flat-bottomed sappa boats carry visitors along the interior waterways. The planting is staged through the year — wisteria, then irises, lotus, roses and winter narcissus — and admission is free from December to March.
