🌸 Akebono Azalea 🌸
The azalea 🌸 blooms from mid-April and can be enjoyed until early May at the longest.
It is a very large deciduous broad-leaved tree of the genus Azalea of the family Azaleaceae and is found on rocky cliffs in high mountains above 1000 m. The most early blooming among high mountain azaleas.

It grows wild in clusters near the Morotsukayama West Trailhead, and the scenery of colorful pink flowers blooming in the mountains in Spring is a superb view ✨

The Akebono Azalea Cluster of trees on Mt. Morotsuka is about 5 minutes up the hill from the Torii (shrine gate) ⛩️ gate at the west trailhead. Appreciation is easy without authentic mountain climbing, so many people from all over Kyushu visit to see this nature 🍃.
