The Boso Flower Line refers to an area of about 46 km from Tateyama to Minami Boso. You can find flowers such as nanohana flowers and snow daisy colouring the roadside everywhere. There are also scenic spots where various flowers bloom on one side. Although each type of flower has its own specific blooming season, most of the flowers reach their peak between January and April.
To add, since there is no railway in the area, the bus is the only method of transportation. Alternatively, you can cycle along the coast by bicycle. By the way, bicycles can be rented at stations, tourist information centres and Michi-no-Eki.
