東村つつじ祭り
50,000 blooming azaleas overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
The 'Tsutsuji' (Azalea) Festival in Higashi Village occurs in March. This village in the northern 'Yanbaru' region grows 50,000 bushes that create a sea of red, pink, and white. The park is built on a hillside that slopes down toward the Pacific. March is a perfect time to visit as the humidity is low and the temperatures are comfortable. The village is also famous for its pineapple production, so visitors can enjoy fresh local fruit during the festival.
