Ome Plum Park

The plum blossom is the symbol of Ome. Almost one thousand plum trees bloom across the park in vivid pinks and whites from February to March. The park features several varieties including the Baigo plum, which originated in Ome. The Yoshino Baigo Ume Matsuri plum blossom festival is held in the park from late February to late March. On weekends during the festival, there are music and dance performances. Many seasonal flowers are planted throughout the park, including wintersweet, Japanese narcissus, and azaleas. The park is close to the Yoshikawa Eiji Memorial Museum and the Ome Kimono Museum.
