Enjoy the spring spread of cherry blossoms and nemophilas at Shonen Park

Teshino-en Park is a representative springtime photo spot with more than 20 varieties of cherry trees, including Someiyoshino. Visitors can enjoy the park's gradual change to spring colors as the cherry trees bloom one after another, starting with the early bloomers. Nemophila also blooms during the cherry blossom season, and the gorgeous collaboration of pale pink and fresh blue makes for a picturesque scene no matter what angle you shoot from. In autumn, the metasequoia trees change colors and take on a completely different, more serene appearance than in spring, which is another attraction of this area. With different scenery to enjoy in each season, Tatsunaga Park is a place where you can make new discoveries no matter how many times you visit.

Key points for photography

The key to photography is to be aware of the combination of flowers and the shooting position. In spring, taking advantage of the difference in height between cherry blossoms and nemophila, you can create a three-dimensional composition with the cherry blossoms in the background by placing the nemophila in the foreground from a low position. Cherry blossoms bloom at different times of the year depending on the variety, so it is best to check the blooming status before visiting to take photos efficiently. For metasequoia trees in autumn, be aware of the depth of the rows of trees and emphasize the perspective from the center of the path to create a powerful shot. The park is large and many families visit, so if you want to avoid crowds, aim for the morning hours and enjoy taking pictures while being considerate of your surroundings.
