[Kami-gun, Miyagi Prefecture] Wedding in the garden! ? Let's enjoy flowers at "Yakurai Garden"!

Yakuraiyama.
It is a conical mountain located in northern Miyagi Prefecture, on the way from Kami District to Yamagata Prefecture.
Did you know that, despite its low altitude of only 533m, there is a beautiful flower garden spread out halfway up this mountain, which is affectionately known as ``Kami Fuji'' after the name of Kami District due to its beautiful shape? .

Yakurai Garden.
This time we will introduce one of the most gorgeous parks in Yakurai Resort.

Mt. Yakurai is a mountain of faith where many legends remain.

Mt. Yakurai is a small independent peak located northeast of Mt. Funagata, which has a wide base.
Surrounded by the Osaki Plain, which is filled with rice fields and fields, you can admire its handsome appearance even from Furukawa.

Many legends have been told about Mt. Yakurai since ancient times.
One of the most unique stories is the story of Sakanoue Tamuramaro, a character we often learn about in history textbooks.

During the Heian period, Sakanoue Tamuramaro, the Great Shogun who was on an expedition to the Tohoku region, shot a large arrow over 2 meters long from Mt. Mugoku in Wakudani.
He sent his men to look for it, but after three days and nights they couldn't find it.
``The reason you can't find arrows that big is because the mountain ate them.''
That's why this mountain was named ``Yakurai-san.''

Everything about the 2m long arrow and the conclusion that the arrow was eaten by the mountain as a result of it coming from Wakudani is absurd, but that's probably why it has been passed down as an anecdote to this day.

What is Yakurai Garden?

Now, let's finally introduce "Yakurai Garden".
Yakurai Garden is one of the facilities located at Yakurai Resort, located halfway up Mt. Yakurai.
It is a botanical garden surrounded by magnificent nature and beautiful flowers.

Seasonal flowers are planted throughout the grounds, pleasing the eyes of visitors.
Another point is that different flowers bloom each season, making you want to visit many times a year.

One particular point that you cannot miss is ``Fururu no Oka''.Fururu no
Oka is home to one of the largest flower fields in the Tohoku region.
The best time to see them is around the middle of May or the end of August, and the beautiful flowers that spread out as far as the eye can see are so impressive that you can't help but cry out!
