Local Information Vol.13 "Gunma Flower Park"
Gunma Flower Park, located in Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture, is a popular outing spot that is easily accessible from Akagi-shuku. Reopening in October 2025 with the concept of "Enjoy!

The park is rich in nature, and you can enjoy seasonal flowers and hands-on activities, making it the perfect spot for sightseeing in the Akagi area.
