Hana Ride to Sera Town

On 4th of May, I took a ride to "KAMU-no-SATO" seeing "Shibazakura" in Sera Town which is 50km away from Hiroshima downtown.

Heading North on national route 54 for about an hour.
And changed my route to 52→37→52 again→375→56 and finally 45.


What is "shibazakura" in English?
As I searched... "Phlox Subulata" in English... who knows?
shiba→lawn
zakura=sakura→cherry blossom

seems like cherry blossom on the ground:)
hard for me to explain. "Un bon croquis vaut mieux qu'un long discours"




About 800,000 of "Phlox Subulata". I was checking their bloom forecast everyday to visit on "the best day". 4th of May was the day! lots of ppl though... it needed to be my day off and sunny weather too..yea it was a perfect day.








It took me just an hour and half to get there. However on the way back I got lost and took about 3 hours to go home since my cell phone ran out of battery and couldn't check my route. took really long time to find the sign says "HIROSHIMA".


other than "shibazakura", Sera town has some flower parks like tulip,lily,lavender etc...

I had really relaxing time in Sera town.
