Misato town lavender field

This two-hectare botanical garden contains more than 20,000 lavender plants that create a pattern of purple rows across the landscape.

The establishment of this lavender field represents a modern agricultural initiative in Akita Prefecture to diversify local farming and boost regional tourism.

Local events and workshops at the garden demonstrate traditional Japanese methods of lavender cultivation and essential oil production throughout the summer season.

The lavender field opens for visitors from mid-June to late July, with direct transportation options available from Kakunodate Station to the garden entrance.

The garden cultivates a rare white lavender variety called Misato Sekka, which produces pure white flowers instead of the typical purple blooms.
