Welcome to Tsukuba, Japan!!

Asakusa, Tokyo
Mito, Ibaraki
Kairakuen Garden is in its best season!
Note
In spring, the top season, Kairakuen Station is temporarily open only on weekends. By taking the train from Tsuchiura Station to Kairakuen, you will not be bothered by traffic jams. However, please note that trains do not stop in the return direction. Go to Mito Station or use the bus to return.
Ushiku, Ibaraki
I recommend it if you want to visit a unique place. With a rental car, it is relatively easy to get there.
