Mito’s spring begins with the plum blossoms. As the season softens in early spring, the blossoms that begin to bloom here and there herald Mito’s slightly early arrival of spring. At Kairakuen, approximately 3,000 plum trees across about 100 varieties burst into bloom, while at Kodokan, around 800 trees spanning roughly 60 varieties flourish. Enticed by the fragrance of early spring, why not embark on a journey to admire the flowers? For further details, please refer to the Mito Plum Blossom Festival website.
