Located five-minute walk from the south exit of Hadano Station, the Park features Imaizumi spring pond which boasts clear water that wells up 2,500 tons a day. The water is highly transparent and you can see the fish and even the bottom of the pond clearly.
The pond is lined by cherry trees of 18 species, which come into bloom at different times and show beautiful blossoms even after spring.

3. Cherry blossom at Hadano City Minami Elementary School

南小学校

There are two tall cherry trees in the school yard. Someiyoshino, or Prunus yedoensis, is said to live for about 60 years, and so there are not many existing old ones. The two trees were planted here when the school opened in 1892. The 120-year old Someiyoshinos are very rare even in the country.
Visitors are not allowed to enter the school premises for cherry blossom viewing, but you can see the trees closely from the front on the southern side of the school yard.

Lake Shinsei-ko was formed by an earthquake. When the Great Kanto Earthquake took place, hills in the vicinity collapsed 200 meters and blocked the mountain river to form a lake. You can take a walk around the lake, which is about 1km, enjoying cherry blossoms in spring and colored leaves in autumn.

The Shrine is regarded as having divine favor in matchmaking, and has appeared in a movie. On the west side of the precincts, there is a spring called “water from thousand years-old forest”, which is surrounded by artificial forest of various kinds of trees and a creak. Since the water is very clean, you can see fireflies in summer.
