Minamizawa Ajisaiyama (Minamizawa Hydrangea Woods)
This is a popular summer tourist destination in the Akigawa Keikoku Valley, created by one old man who spent half a century planting over 10,000 hydrangeas on the mountainside.
A popular secret is the story of local youths who have taken up the task of caring for the flowers in order to preserve this beautiful mountain for the next generation.
