Omiya Park

Enjoy the season of gorgeous cherry blossoms and yellow leaves in autumn at Omiya Park

Omiya Park is one of the best parks in Saitama Prefecture, where visitors can enjoy a completely different look in spring and fall. In spring, the park is famous for its cherry blossoms, and the whole area is covered in light pink, welcoming the gorgeous season when many people visit the park. The cherry blossoms in the spacious park give a sense of openness, making it an attractive place to enjoy a relaxing stroll while viewing the blossoms. In autumn, the ginkgo and maple trees turn color, and the golden ginkgo trees and the red and orange maple trees that decorate the pond and woods create a serene autumn scene. One of the major attractions of Omiya Park is that visitors can experience a different natural beauty each time they visit in each season.

Key points for photography

For springtime cherry blossoms, it is best to take pictures in the early morning hours to create a calm atmosphere because of the large crowds, and to take advantage of the spacious park to express the expanse of the cherry blossoms in a pulled composition. For autumn foliage, focusing on the area around the ginkgo trees and the pond and being conscious of the depth of the trees and the layering of colors will easily produce a shot with a sense of the season, and using low light in the morning and evening will bring out the beautiful hues of the leaves.
