Hydrangea Festival in Shimoda

060605hydrangea01_1The hydrangea Festival that is held at Shimoda park is taking place this year too.

This is a signboard that I took in front of Shimoda station.
This boad says to travellers about events of Shimoda all the year, and this time it advertises Ajisai (hydrangea) Festival takes place from June 1st to 30th.

I am going to show you today’s hydrangea brossoms in the garden of Sakuraya….

060605ajisai01_1This year hydrangea is blooming lately, so the best season to see this flowers would be from the middle of June.

In Shimoda park there is a hydrangea area and you can see 150,000 trees and 3 million flowers of hydrangea.

But I love these colors, white and purple in this stage more than full blooming.
