Summer time in Japan is hot and humid, but it is also the time when many outdoor events and festivals are held. Despite the summer heat, most of the people take this opportunity to go outdoors and soak up the summer atmosphere.
If you love flowers, now is the perfect timing to take a walk through the stunning field of sunflowers in Yanagawa (柳川). The Yanagawa Sunflower Garden (柳川ひまわり園) is a reclaimed land filled with more than 350,000 sunflowers. On a nice sunny day, the lively yellow color of the flowers against the clear blue sky creates a scenic summer landscape view. Before leaving the beautiful garden, remember to get yourself a cup of shaved ice dessert (Kakigōri) to cool yourself down.
