Shiroyama Park

Located near Tateyama Station, this park is one of the most famous cherry blossom spots in southern Chiba. Tateyama Castle is perched atop a hill at the center of the park, offering panoramic views of the southern Boso Peninsula and Tokyo Bay. Nearby, a traditional tea-house is nestled in a quiet Japanese garden. The Tateyama Municipal Museum within the park offers a glimpse at the samurai and civilian history of the region. Walking paths wind around the park’s hillsides, and every nook along the way has something to offer, from the open field and cafe at the entrance, to the plum tree grove in the park’s back corner.
