24th Satte Hydrangea Festival
An annual hydrangea festival held in June at Gongendo Park (Prefectural Gongendo Park) in Satte City. About 100 varieties and 16,000 hydrangea plants bloom, with 3,000 Annabelle hydrangeas creating a stunning all-white landscape. While Gongendo is known as a cherry blossom destination, the early summer hydrangeas are equally impressive. Blue, pink, white, and purple hydrangeas beautifully color the rainy season. Free admission for casual strolling.
