Misato Town, early summer, 20,000 lavender plants swaying in the wind.

  • Akita
  • Experience Gifu
Vivid contrast of purple and white
The 20,000 lavender plants in a vast field of about 2 hectares in the Odaino Plaza in Misato Town, Akita Prefecture, will soon be at their best. The view of the lavender shimmering in the wind blowing from the Ou Mountains is a poetic sight of early summer in Misato Town. The contrast between the green of the Ou Mountains and the purple and white of the lavenders is well worth seeing!

Misato Town's original white lavender "Misato Sekka" is in bloom at the Misato Town Lavender Garden. Misato Sekka was discovered here in the lavender garden and registered as a variety in 2013. In addition to the freshness characteristic of lavender, it is said to be a variety characterized by its gentle and sweet fragrance. In addition, six other varieties of lavender are in full bloom in the garden.

Lavender Festival

Visitors can try their hand at lavender picking!

The Lavender Festival is held during the opening period of the lavender garden. During the lavender festival, visitors can try their hand at picking lavenders. You can decorate it as it is, or enjoy it as potpourri or sachets! Please note that "Misato Yukika" cannot be picked.
In addition to the picking experience, there is a road lined with many stalls. Among them, we recommend the "Lavender Garden Limited Edition Niteco Cider," which is Akita Prefecture's representative local cider! Please visit the venue and look for it! Every Saturday and Sunday, the Kogumachan-go will be running a round-the-park tour of the park! On June 22, Misato Town's image character, Mizumo's friends will visit from all over Japan!
