At "Fuji Motosuko Resort" (Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi Prefecture), operated by PICA Co., Ltd. of the Fuji-Q Group, operations of one of the largest English gardens in the Tokyo metropolitan area, the "Peter Rabbit™ English Garden," will commence on Saturday, April 11, 2026, coinciding with the start of the "Fuji Shibazakura Festival."
Supervised by British garden designer Mark Chapman, the "Peter Rabbit™ English Garden" is an authentic British garden themed around the famous picture book "The Tale of Peter Rabbit," set in the English Lake District. Entering its fifth year since opening in 2022, the garden's plants and flowers have grown year by year, allowing visitors to enjoy an increasingly beautiful landscape. From spring to early winter, you can enjoy about 300 varieties of plants and flowers. This year, 36 varieties of spring-blooming bulb flowers totaling about 3,230 bulbs—including tulips, daffodils, lilies, bluebells, and muscari donated by the Netherlands International Bulb Center—have been newly added, allowing you to enjoy a more colorful spring landscape than ever before.
Don't miss the adorable photo spots of Peter Rabbit and Tom Kitten introduced last year, where the flowers change with the seasons, as well as the "Peter Rabbit™ Story Trail," an outdoor gallery scattered with "story fragments" from the entire 23-volume picture book series. You can stroll while searching for seasonal plants and characters, experiencing the sensation of stepping into the world of the picture books. The shop sells cute merchandise such as Peter Rabbit keychains holding peaches and grapes, which are local specialties of Yamanashi Prefecture. At the adjoining cafe, you can enjoy original menu items inspired by Peter Rabbit's picture books, such as "Mr. McGregor's Freshly Picked Vegetable Bouquet Salad."
This spring, why not spend a special time in the world of beautiful flowers and Peter Rabbit while feeling the pleasant breeze at Motosuko Resort at the foot of Mount Fuji?
