2026 Sodegaura Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in July)

Just a quick 40-minute trip from downtown Tokyo, you'll find "Tokyo German Village" in Sodegaura City, Chiba Prefecture. This sprawling flower and nature theme park covers a massive hilly area roughly the size of 16 Tokyo Domes. The founder gave it this name because the Sodegaura countryside reminded him of his beloved rural landscapes of Germany, and the opening of the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line made it incredibly accessible from Tokyo. This year, the park is celebrating its 25th anniversary! To mark the occasion, they're hosting tons of events and special programs, but the main attraction is definitely this flower garden—the largest in the park's history, bursting with 260,000 colorful tulips. They'll be in full bloom all throughout April. Starting in mid-May at the park's "Irodori no Oka" (Hill of Colors), an absolutely breathtaking flower field reminiscent of Munchkinland from the movie "Wicked" is set to make an appearance. Of course, seasonal blooms brighten up the park all year round, and in the spring, you can also enjoy stunning fields of moss phlox (shibazakura) and Livingston daisies. Another major draw of the park is the chance to get up close and personal with all sorts of animals! You can hang out with pups at "Doggy World," pet adorable critters at the "Children's Zoo," check out rare global species at the "World Insect & Reptile Kingdom," cuddle soft little animals at the "World Fluffy Kingdom," and interact with exotic marine life from around the globe at the "World Petting Aquarium." True to its name, Tokyo German Village also serves up some fantastic authentic German eats. You can dig into traditional German dishes, fresh-baked Baumkuchen (a classic German pastry), warm pretzels, and, of course, German beer! On top of all that, you can try your hand at seasonal fruit picking or play a round on one of the Kanto region's largest putt-putt golf courses. Finally, one of the best perks of this park is that you can actually drive your own car right through it. In fact, since there aren't any shuttle buses inside, it's pretty tough to get around without a vehicle. As long as you don't exit the gates, you can loop around the park as many times as you like, making it easy to spend a whole day soaking up the fun.

📅 Travel Itinerary Review Day 1 After meeting up, we headed into Chiba via the Aqua Line. Along the way, we stopped at Umihotaru PA for lunch overlooking the ocean. It was a truly memorable scenic stop during our drive. Afterwards, we visited Yoro Valley, where we admired the waterfalls and relaxed in a foot bath. Surrounded by nature, we refreshed ourselves and soothed our travel fatigue. In the evening, we checked into our accommodation, Sea Saw. We enjoyed a BBQ for dinner and played board games late into the night. We ended the day in a harmonious atmosphere. Day 2 In the morning, we started our morning with a dip in the lodging's outdoor barrel sauna. Feeling the ocean breeze while enjoying the sauna experience was a special and truly luxurious experience. Afterwards, we headed to Ohara Fishing Port, just a 10-minute walk from the lodging. The breakfast, featuring fresh seafood from the fishing port, was exceptional, and some items are available in limited quantities. If you're planning on visiting, we recommend arriving early. For lunch, we stopped off at Tokyo German Village for a heated game of putt-putt golf. It was a fun and easy activity, perfect for a group trip. On the way back, we stopped off at a roadside station and browsed for local souvenirs. It was the perfect way to end our trip. 🏨 Accommodation ・Sea Saw The location and facilities were excellent, and the owner was very attentive and welcoming, making for a relaxing stay.
