Maruyama Park


Maruyama Park is in Sapporo. You can go there by subway, Touzai line. The station is the fourth from Odori station. Get off the train, you can find KFC on the right and go straight KFC’s street. Go on walking, you will see little forest and there is Maruyama Park. There are many cherry blossom trees, so people come to see it and eat and drink there in the spring. Maruyama Park’s cherry blossom is famous and really beautiful therefore companies or university’s clubs use their events, to a cherry blossom-viewing picnic. Then Maruyama baseball ground is near the Maruyama Park. In the summer, high school baseball games are played at there. In addition sometimes Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters plays there too. Many people come there and watch exciting games with beers and foods. After summer, you can see colored leaves in Maruyama Park. Cherry blossom tree’s leaves turned in autumn. It’s very beautiful too so a lot of people come to see it and walk around the park. In the winter, people pay a visit to The Hokkaido Shrine, near the Maruyama Park on New Year’s Day. Like this we can enjoy there all the year.
