    Aichi Gamagori-shi Kanehiracho Ichinosawa 28-1
    A renowned destination for enjoying bigleaf hydrangea in Katahara Onsen. The area around Hodagaike Pond in the center of the hot spring district is maintained as a bigleaf hydrangea garden and has become a famous sightseeing spot. At the present time, more than 50 thousand hydrangea plants of varying colors and sizes are grown around the pond. The best time to see the hydrangea flowers is from June 1 to 30, and during this time a hydrangea festival is also held in the area. Special busses operate during the festival and a variety of events like haiku recitations and rare hydrangea exhibitions are held. At night, the area is lit up, giving visitors the chance to enjoy the beauty of the hydrangea in a way different from that of the day.

    昨年は開催が中止でしたが、今年は開催という事で訪れましたが、駐車場も満員でかなり待ちましたが、紫陽花の素晴らしさに感動でした。 広大な敷地にたくさんの種類の紫陽花が咲きほこり、圧巻でした。紫陽花に囲まれた階段を上がり、上から見下ろした景色も素晴らしかったです。 不安が続く状況ですが、あまりの素晴らしさに癒されました。

    Aichi Toyokawa-shi Kanayanishimachi
    This embankment along the Sanagawa River in Toyokawa City is a well-known cherry blossom spot with cherry trees along about four kilometers of both banks. Rape blossoms bloom at the same time as the cherry trees in spring when it becomes one of the venues for the Toyokawa Cherry Blossom Festival. An increasingly popular tourist spot, they illuminate the blossoms at night and open stands geared toward the visitors.

    今年は桜の開花が早く3月の20日くらいには満開になっていました。佐奈川の両岸に植えられた桜や菜の花を見ながら散歩するのが毎年の楽しみになっています。約2KMくらいは歩いて見てきますが、まだとの位続いているかわからないですが桜並木はとても綺麗です。連年は近くのイオンでお弁当を買って桜の花を見ながら昼食するのですが、今年はやめておきましたが、来年はお弁当を食べて帰りたいです。

  • Goyu Avenue of Pines

    Aichi Pref. Toyokawashi Goyuchou Namimatsu
    Goyu Avenue of Pines is an approximately 600 meter long row of pine trees from Goyu-shuku to Akasaka-shuku, prosperous post-station towns along the former Tokaido Road. The trees were planted by order of the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1604 as a way to protect travelers from the blazing sun in the summer and the howling wind and snow in the winter. Of the Go-kaido Road (Five Highways radiating from Edo) there are now very few places where avenues of pines can be found. The Goyu Avenue of Pines has been designated as a natural monument in Japan. In the novel, Tokaidochu Hizakurige (known as Shank's Mare), the Goyu Avenue of Pines is where the main characters Yajirobe and Kitahachi were to be bewitched by a fox. The nearest station is Goyu Station.

    Aichi Toyohashi-shi Kamocho Kamada

    今年も天気が良いので出かけてきました。昨年はとても空いていた駐車場も少し混みあっていました。園内には幼稚園の子供たちで意外と混み合っていました。11時頃になると園内はとても人が少なくなったので、写真を撮って花しょうぶ園を楽しんできました。今年は花しょうぶが園内全体に咲きそろって、早めに咲いたアジサイの花と相まってとても綺麗な園内が峰ました。

Aichi Areas

around-area-map

Aichi is a prefecture of great natural beauty with Nagoya city at its heart, a busy hub home to a labyrinth of underground shops and the 17th-century Nagoya Castle. Castles are easy to find in this history-rich prefecture, but the highlight for history buffs has to be the Museum Meiji-mura, where preserved buildings from the turn of the 20th century are displayed in all their grandeur in an outdoor museum.
