Kanoya Rose Garden — 50,000 Rose Bushes
Kanoya Rose Garden (かのやばら園) is one of Japan's largest rose gardens with 50,000 bushes representing 1,500 varieties spread across 8 hectares of hillside overlooking Kanoya Bay. The garden blooms twice annually — spring (late April–early June) and autumn (late October–early December) — with peak colors and fragrance in May and November.
The garden uses terraced hillside to create 'walls' of roses in cascading color gradients — red fading to pink to white to yellow.
