Spring 2023
Welcome to Spring 2023 edition of Chiba Update!
Spring is the season of rebirth! greenery and bright flowers combine with the pleasant weather. It is always a mystery to see a naked tree of cherry blossoms emerge from winter dormancy and begin producing exquisite pink petals, creating an exciting sense of atmosphere that spreads throughout cities and villages across the country. After fully displaying their brilliance, the Sakura petals begin to fall, giving way to rich green leaves that grow as the season progresses. This time of year is ideal for getting out and enjoying nature because you may travel comfortably with light coats and sweaters.
In Chiba, there are many popular flower parks such as Sakura Furusato Square, a park located in Sakura City where you can enjoy seasonal flowers such as tulips in the spring, sunflowers in the summer, and cosmos in the autumn. Mother Farm and Tokyo German Village are also among the most popular flower theme parks to visit.
When planning a visit to Japan, please visit the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare’s homepage for the latest information on , as Current Japanese Border Measures, as well as ‘Visit Japan Web’ app for procedures and other safety protocols.
As Japan greeted the new fiscal year with an optimistic attitude on welcoming international tourists and business event attendees, we hope that you will have an amazing rediscovery of Japan on your next visit.
Once again, it is our pleasure to bring you latest happenings in Chiba. Through this edition, we hope you will learn more about the advantages of Chiba as MICE destination, and will look forward to our next issues for more updates.
