Hydrangea Garden in Hanazono

Monday, July 5th, 2010  Cloudy

Twenty-minute-drive from Koyasan, there's a Hydrangea Garden in Hanazono. According to the website of Hanazono, the hydrangea will be at their best around July 10th and later this year. The 'Hanazono Hydrangea Garden' is proud of its scale and location. It is located on a hillside about 1,000 meters above sea level, nearly 3,000 hydrangeas will bloom during the summer season. The 'Hanazono Hydrangea Garden' was introduced in a popular magazine for women, JOSEIJISHIN, as one of the best spots to enjoy beautiful flowers in Japan selected by famous Japanese photographers. Drive through the Ryujin Skyline (R371) , 32 kilometers to the south from Koyasan, you can get to the 'Hanazono Hydrangea Garden' in twenty minutes. I'm planning to visit the garaden during this summer season. Then I'll paste some pictures here. (SKY)
