Fluffy, downy, lovable plant, "kochia." It turns bright red in the Fall.

The kochias at the "Miharashi no Oka," in Hitachi Seaside Park, located in Hitachinaka-shi, Ibaraki Prefecture, are best seen in the Fall. The kochias, coloring the entire hill in bright red, exhibit an unforgettable bright tone.

Cosmos is beautiful in the Fall as well.

The admission is free on Sunday October 5th and 19th, 2014, in honor of the urban green month. Plan your trip early, for a visit in October!

It is about two hours from the greater Tokyo area, and is located close enough for a day trip. The express bus is convenient for those without a car.
