In Maebashi, you can take in sweeping city views from the Gunma Prefectural Office Observation Deck, then wander through serene parks like Rakuhodo Maebashi and the historic Rinkokaku House, a charming villa from 1884. Seasonal blooms make the rose gardens of Shikishima Park and the Gunma Flower Park especially enchanting, while families will love the playful energy of Lunar Park. If you’re craving the outdoors, Gunma’s mountains offer endless adventures.
