【Hokkaido】Lavender and Sunflower Fields – Zerubu’s Hill

Posted on by nicklee

In 2009, I planned to visit Zerubu‘s Hill.
but I didn’t do enough research and couldn’t find it, so I didn’t go~
This time, I was driving myself and accidentally passed by, so I stopped to take a look~
I remember the first time I saw Zerubu‘s Hill was in 2005 when I came to Hokkaido with a tour group, viewing the scenery from the tour bus… and it was through the glass window.
At that time, I thought: Wow~ so beautiful~
(It was my first time traveling abroad, so I was easily amazed…)

This flower field is also free to visit.
According to the official website, they grow lavender and sunflowers.

The flower field here is really Small; it only takes about 20 minutes to walk through.

You can see quite a few sunflowers here, but there are only two small areas, not a whole field.

And the sunflowers are not very tall.

You can rent an ATV here and take a ride around the garden.

The leaves of the lavender here are different from those in other regions, but I can’t tell the varieties apart.

That’s the situation I saw at Zerubu’s Hill this time~

Besides Sakamoto Ryoma and Udon noodles, which are well-known in Shikoku, the Shikoku Pilgrimage is also famous. The so-called pilgrimage refers to a journey of worship. The Shikoku Pilgrimage involves visiting 88 temples in the Shikoku region, all of which are sacred places related to Kobo Daishi (Kukai). Since the Heian period, ascetic monks have followed Kobo Daishi’s route to embark on a pilgrimage to these 88 temples, covering a walking distance of about 1,200 kilometers. However, nowadays, not only monks participate in the pilgrimage, but travelers also arrange such trips.

Mie Prefecture – Akame Onsen – Ninja Themed Hotel – Taisenkaku

Nabari is the birthplace of the famous Iga Ninja, Momochi Sandayu (Momochi Tanba), during the Sengoku period in Japan. Due to leading the Iga Ninja to their heyday, their power threatened Oda Nobunaga, and they were ultimately destroyed when Oda Nobunaga led a 50,000-strong army to attack Iga. The hotel I am staying at tonight, Taisenkaku Hotel, is filled with a strong ninja atmosphere. Not only does the hotel display armor from the Sengoku period, but it also showcases the ninja weapons used by Momochi Sandayu back in the day. So, staying here, you must not miss these exhibits!
