Hello, this is Ryusuidō. In Shosenkyo Gorge, the greenery of the trees 🌿 deepens day by day, beautifully coloring the valley with various shades of green. Although it is the rainy season, the leaves wet from the rain shine gently, creating a calm and peaceful atmosphere 😊 In the upper area of Senga Falls, the annual summer tradition 🎐 of wind chimes is already being displayed. The origin of wind chimes comes from bells called "fūtaku," which were originally hung as talismans to ward off evil. 🔔 Their cool sound is said to have a relaxing effect that calms the mind. Please enjoy the unique harmony of the vibrant greens of Shosenkyo and the sound of Senga Falls, along with the refreshing tones of the wind chimes 🎐 during this season 😊 Additionally, the upper area of the falls has many spots where you can relax and forget about daily life. At Ryusuidō, we also have a variety of natural stones, including larimar, perfect for the upcoming season ✨ We invite you to visit Shosenkyo and spend time surrounded by rich nature and healing moments. The staff is looking forward to the day we can see your wonderful smiles 😊

This photo was also taken at the Flower Culture Garden. Various wind chimes were displayed everywhere. The tone was so pure that even I, who usually listen to music while shooting, involuntarily took off my earphones. It is a piece of confidence that I used as much as I could use the techniques that I could use in the shooting.
