COOL JAPAN VIDEOS Photo Contest PR
Mar. 22, 2023
Introducing the photos posted on "Minna no Post"! This is a pickup post on the inbound tourism information SNS "COOL JAPAN VIDEOS". Today, I would like to introduce a post by "ogishii". The scenery of the moss phlox carpet and Mt. Muko is superb. Located in Omiya, Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture, Hitsujiyama Park is a popular tourist destination in Saitama famous for its views of Mount Muko and moss phlox. moss phlox Hill, a moss phlox attraction in the southern area of the Hitsujiyama Park, is about 17,600 square meters in size. The superb view of 400,000 moss phlox of 9 types spreading all over is a must-see. It is also called "flower patchwork" because it is planted by combining various types of moss phlox. The best time to see it is usually mid-April ~ early May. How about a Golden Week outing? In addition to moss phlox, more than 1,000 cherry trees such as Somei Yoshino, weeping cherry blossoms, and Yae cherry blossoms are in full bloom in the park, and it is crowded with cherry blossom viewers and photographers. The best time to see them is usually in early ~ mid-April. Recommended cherry blossom spots are near the cherry blossom trees and lawn plaza on the slope to the hill with a view. The Hitsujiyama Park is full of attractions other than cherry blossoms. At the "Fureai Ranch" on the west side of moss phlox Hill, many sheep are kept and you can touch them directly. You can see the materials of Mt. Muko, which has been designated as one of Japan's 200 famous mountains, at the "Mt. Muko Museum". Another highlight is the museum "Yamato Ato Myujiamu" that exhibits the works of printmaker Shiko Munakata. ◆Hitsujiyama Park moss phlox Hill◆ 【Address】〒368-0023 Saitama-ken, Chichibu-shi, Omiya 6314 【Access】 ・Railway About a 20-minute walk from Seibu Railway Yokose Station About 20 minutes on foot from Seibu Chichibu Station ・Car From Kanetsu Expressway Hanazono IC, take National Route 140, Minano Yorii Bypass about 25 km

Wow what a cool sight! I've been out to Nagatoro and Chichibu and went on a riverboat ride and I think I remember the guy pushing the boat saying something about there being icicles there during the winter. I'd love to go back and see it sometime as this looks really amazing. Also we wanted to try the kayaking in Nagatoro as well since the water was too low when we went and the boat we rode on couldn't go as far downriver. I guess they have some skiing there as well, I'm not sure if it's connected to the ropeway at all, but that's another cool thing to do in the area. The mountain is really beautiful and I think there's probably a good amount of cherry blossoms if you go in the spring. I'd like to explore Chichibu more though as I hear there's a pilgrimage there where you can see temples and shrines and stuff.

Chichibu City, Saitama in winter
"Icicle of the Thirty Hammers" near the mouth of the three peaks

The icicles I saw for the first time were different from the documents and videos
It gave me a fantastic impression somehow.
It was normal to feel cold, but somehow I felt warmth.
