Yesterday I visited Kinchakuda in Hidaka City in Saitama Pref.
Kinchakuda is famous for its beautiful cluster amaryllis,’彼岸花.

彼岸花 is another name of 曼珠沙華 which means flowers
blooming in heaven.(天上に咲く花)

I invited Mrs. M to go there with me.
I’ve been there several times but Mrs. M had never visited it.

Yesterday it was her first visit to Kinchakuda.

We walked from Koma Station. There were farmers’ stands
on the way.





We walked along the Koma River.
We had onigiri-lunch beside the Koma River.





We paid 300 yen each, and enjoyed the flowers.

Mrs. M was excited to see the red carpets of beautiful flowers.









We were too early to enjoy cosmos.



We enjoyed the flowers of red buckwheat
and Mt. Hiwada.



Mrs. M and I had a good time enjoying 彼岸花 at their best.





I walked 15799 steps in a day.
