A variety of events are held every weekend during the Rose Festival. It is the only rose park in Japan to be recognized by the Ministry of the Environment as one of the “100 most fragrant landscapes,” and was also recognized as a “sacred place for lovers” among tourist spots in Japan.

In addition to viewing roses, visitors can also enjoy rose-based sweets (such as rose soft serve) and pasta, as well as a variety of rose goods and rose saplings.
