Nestled in the northeastern corner of Asahikawa city, Ueno Farm is a delightful farm garden in Nagayama that's been cultivating beauty since 1906. Ms. Sayuki Ueno, an inspired gardener, crafted a unique Hokkaido-style garden that blends seamlessly with the island's climate and natural features. It's the perfect foundation for an English-style garden, which has been welcoming visitors since 2001. Imagine wandering through 1.3 hectares of lush landscapes adorned with over 2,000 varieties of flowering plants. From the vibrant hues of spring to the rich tones of autumn, there's always something in bloom to captivate your senses. The garden's open from late April to mid-October, with an entrance fee of JPY 800, and you'll be pleased to know there's free parking available.
For those who enjoy a good cup of coffee or a bite to eat amidst nature's beauty, the NAYA café is a cozy spot on the grounds, open all year round. It's the perfect place to unwind after a leisurely stroll through the gardens. Asahikawa itself is known for its stunning natural scenery and is a gateway to the nearby Daisetsuzan National Park, where adventure awaits for outdoor enthusiasts.
