Kaiseizan Park, Urban park in Kōriyama, Japan
Kaiseizan Park is an urban park in Koriyama centered around Lake Isuzu, with sports facilities distributed throughout its grounds. The property includes athletic fields, baseball grounds, and swimming areas arranged across the landscape.
The park was planted with Somei-Yoshino cherry trees beginning in 1878, making them among the earliest cultivated specimens of that variety. These historical plantings established the site as a long-standing destination for seasonal viewing.
The park serves as a gathering place for cherry blossom celebrations, where locals and visitors spend time under the blooming trees. These seasonal gatherings have made it a focal point in the city's social calendar.
Visitors reach the park easily by bus number 9 from Koriyama Station, with stops near City Hall adjacent to the entrance. The convenient transit access makes visiting straightforward regardless of when you go.
A specialized rose garden displays varieties from different regions and blooms twice yearly in June and October. This double blooming season makes the space distinctive for those interested in roses.
