Lily festival
ゆりの里公園 祭り
A scenic park showcases 150,000 lilies in bloom each June, transforming into an illuminated landscape as evening falls.
Located in Fukui Prefecture, this scenic park is renowned for its breathtaking display of 150,000 lilies in full bloom. At the heart of the park lies a 3,800-square-meter exhibition garden, where Yurimu Harue, a striking lily-shaped landmark, rises prominently among the flowers.
The surrounding grounds feature expansive grassy lawns, a barbecue area, and an athletic playground that is especially popular with children, making the park a welcoming destination for visitors of all ages. Each year in June, during peak lily season, a variety of events are held to celebrate the blossoms and the arrival of early summer.
The park also includes a farmers’ market offering locally grown produce. In the evening, illuminated displays transform the area, allowing visitors to enjoy the floral scenery in a different and atmospheric light.
