Shibata Chrysanthemum Festival is held in Funaoka Tateyama, Shibata-cho, Miyagi Pref. Since 1970, when the festival was first held, it has been held in Sanno-maru Hiroba (plaza) of Funaoka Joshi (castle ruin) Park from the mid-October through the mid-November every year. Not only gorgeous chrysanthemum dolls but also the scenes expressed with chrysanthemum dolls, gardening exhibition, and objet d'art made of chrysanthemum flowers are displayed. During the same period, Grand Chrysanthemum Flower Contest is held in the park, where about 1,000 pots of chrysanthemum flowers that chrysanthemum fanciers in the prefecture raised with loving care are exhibited. Visitors can see the only female chrysanthemum craftworker in Japan dress up the dolls. There is also an exhibition space, where the works made by town people are displayed. It’s the best place for families to enjoy autumnal atmosphere.
